This is a treasure. Talk talk will be my favorite music ever

[@irinakarpenko]

My favourite ever since this year. I am so greatly impressed. Living to another world to you by Talk Talk is the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my life.

Oh my god, Mark Hollis voice sounds exactly the same as the recorded! I'm astonished, that's talent

[@renatotorrese4160]

This is one of the reason he was a great singer!

[@elsieeaglestone2374]

i love this, to see live videos of Talk Talk in the early years is so much better than alot of the mimeing and playback ones as they hated them, this shows how amazing they are live. Just a couple of years later and they were so differant and even better than ever, i never get bored with them

[@elenabardi]

I' m italian and i don't speak english. Sorry. The Songs, the music and the his voice , are very important for me. In the 80s i ess a young girl and when i helped my mom to sew, web listened ti music together, She Also liked a lot When She hot dico and the when She Ford, the voice of Mark Hollis, his Song, helped me a lot and i still listen to him and Watch his video.

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

Lisa, were you his dealer? Is that why I've read multiple comments from you saying that he was a junkie?

[@derekbaker3279]

@@sarcasticallyrearranged A huge portion of songs on Talk Talk's first three albums are about Mark's battle with drugs & depression, successfully kicking the habits, falling off the wagon, cursing the pains of addiction, as well as his insights, lessons learned and the people he knew when he lived on the streets (e.g. the haunting beauty of Renee).

[@derekbaker3279]

@Lisa Surlie From what I understand, a huge portion of songs on Talk Talk's first three albums are about Mark's battle with drugs & depression (many people suffering from mental illness 'self-medicate', especially if medical professionals & access to proper medications is limited or impractical due to costs. Marks songs deal with him successfully kicking the habits & falling off the wagon, cursing the pains of addiction & how the drugs controlled him, as well as his insights, lessons learned and the people he knew when he lived on the streets (e.g. the haunting beauty of "Renee", during which he has an imaginary conversation with a fellow junkie who didn't make it out of the hell-hole of addiction alive. Also, there's the song "Where's Caroline?". I'm not sure, but I suspect that Mark may have been romantically involved with one or both of them during various stages of his life before he quit touring, settled down, got married & raised a family.

[@melodieimpa5332]

A great singer with the best team.. Great musicians.. what else ?

[@PatrickIngham21]

i think you'll find Talk Talk's first album "The partys over" is very much a Synthpop, New Wave album.

[@RastaSaiyaman]

A friend of mine once described them as being Depeche Mode meeting Pink Floyd. And no matter how you slice it, that's pretty much right on the money.

[@Cl4rendon]

@@RastaSaiyaman Hahaha.. Nice description - They also used to open for Duran Duran - Somewhat also have a "Flock Of Seagulls" touch - But i`m glad they got more into their own trademark from the Friese Green era onward..

[@paulmcatee4125]

This is awesome. This is how I first saw Talk Talk on Nickelodian when I was like 13. Always thought they were pretty far off from Duran Duran and the cold dark sound of this early era was something very unique.

[@Maverick-to7no]

Paul McAte Yeah, I concur with you, wish I could have been there. No one comes to mind, who's vocals' plead with such malencholic intensity, as Mark Hollis!! And the other 3 Webb, Brenner, & Harris are all very good too, helping to make a very tight unit! You were very Lucky.

Greatest band on the planet xx r.i.p.mark Hollis ,god damn genuis .just loved you all from a very first gig as support to Duran Duran in Liverpool ,just before first single release xx

[@jilloldfield9874]

The change of the pace troughout the three songs is great it changes the mood of the listener beautifully. Just an observation of a dancer/choreoegrapher. Moves along beautifully to change the mood of the listener along. Slow time to quick time. = Movement through time and space a dancers golden rule and understanding. Stillness to off balance,(the step from stillness to movement) through to trusting the safety of that theology built as infants from rolling over to lifting the weight to crawl to moving forward and to standing, the anatomy of becoming a walking phenonemon. The greatest gift that we posess.Movement.xxxxxx

[@veeaveela5440]

LOVE!

[@rondini2]

sort of that, maybe. But there was still an edge to their music that more mainstream Synthpop/new wave groups were often lacking.

[@Katehowe3010]

It was undeniably synth pop, but as you proffered, with a certain edge. Where bands like Duran Duran and their ilk were singing about sex and the like, Mark was tackling the gritty realities of everyday life!

And to anyone that would want to know ..the fantastic single today was originally called magic moments ♥️

[@sharpeslass5452]

Possibly the only appearance I've seen where he seems to be enjoying playing "pop" star: he moves, he dances, he wears a suit jacket. Miles from the guy with the open oxford cloth shirt and scruffy (but darling) ponytail, clutching the mic for dear life and wearing shades. What on earth did they do to you, baby?

[@maryluna38]

Mindy Su Here he makes me a little 'tenderness. I think in those moments he felt rather excited, the youthful dream of becoming a pop star was coming true. But he would soon realize that that dream would cost him too much in terms of freedom, health, and family ties. He made a choice. The right one for him. Very few would have done it. As for his look, I must say that I hate those clothes, but he was terribly cute !!!

[@sharpeslass5452]

Mary Luna That sounds like an accurate analysis. (I just saw this comment. I really am bad at social media. I miss LiveJournal, where you could have actual conversation with people. If I can figure out how to send private messages on Facebook, and if you don't mind, I think I'll just send you my email address. I'd really like to be able to chat with you more!)

Love spell my name, a dream away, and the name Bellisima beautiful xxx

[@ducav2]

More than "bellissima" he says instead "Belle malissima" which - if it's meant to be Italian - it sounds very wrong, as "belle" = beautiful (plural feminine) "malissima" = nonsense, a non existent feminization of "malissimo" = very badly. I guess he meant "beautiful and very evil". I googled out of curiosity, seems like it's not latin either.

[@sharpeslass5452]

It's incorrect Latin. Translates as something close to "Wicked Beauty."

Nope. It's "who's the king..." Incidentally, that was one of the few songs written by Paul Webb. (I think it's the ONLY Talk Talk song not written by Mark Hollis or Mark Hollis/Tim Friese-Greene). I like it a lot. I wish he'd written more.
