What I found amazing was the amount of 20-somethings front and centre trying to get Butler’s attention.

The Furs have been touring since their beginning. I've seen them 6 times since 1981, I believe. Richard Butler used to sing with a cigarette in hand (like Brian Ferry of Roxy Music) until sometime mid to late 80s. I've seen the Furs twice this millenia, and I hear a clearer and improved voice. My last concert seeing them in 2018, the band was great, his voice was the best, and Richard Butler was very entertaining as always. I prefer their early tunes like India and Into You Like a Train. However, every album was a new sound, and you can't go wrong with President Gas, Heaven, Alice's House, and Ghost in You.

I saw them on a double bill with Talk Talk in 1990. It was a great show. A couple other good tracks by "The Furs" are "Heaven" and "The Ghost In You".

One of the few hit songs to prominently feature a xylophone... 🤣

You have to listen to The Ghost In You by them. It's a great song

I always threw them into the “goth lite” category myself. Moody, brooding, haunting, cool

Rob smiling the whole way, with Amber doing her little "wave" back and forth, iconic song!

President Gas is another song off of the same album Forever Now you should react to. Pretty in Pink is definitely a song you should react to as well as Heartbreak Beat.
