I cannot believe with a voice like Tanita's that she is not in our charts in 2023. We need music like her's today 🙂

Thank you, Tanita Tikaram for your awesome songs. You are such a profound singer and songwriter. I saw you singing Twist in my Sobriety on tv when I came to live here in Europe in 1989 and I had to buy your cd “ Ancient Heart”! I love all the songs in that cd.After so many years you’re still one of my favorite songwriters and James Blunt too.😅😍💜

Got it back/Lost this song for almost 40 years. Tanita's Awesome voice is so soft (tech poit : based in the throat when typical female american voices are based in the nose) Arrangement: the dialogue and contrast btw Tanita's soft (bass) voice & the metallic electric guitar is just cool. Not to forget ! => Lyrics are superbe, as well: phrases like "I 'm an ancient heart" are true poesy. A real grande réussite. Love ya Tanita.

University of Leicester October 1988 on a cold night far away from the place I called home. I was 18 with the future ahead of me or so it seemed. I was there at this concert and you could have heard a pin drop when Tanita and the band ( including ex Dexy's Midnight Runner Helen OHara) performed this. I can still see it now.

This is an exquisite song. Maybe the most beautiful I ever heard with the perfectly matching video.

[@DidBer]

Is it a coincidence? Do u know it s fall coming now

[@MsChipmonkey]

To me, it's not a perfectly matching video. Tanita is a 52 year old lesbian. So am I. I was closeted for a long time but the first time I heard this I knew she was singing about a woman. The dude in the video represents lesbian erasure to me.

[@dionvanalem6996]

@@MsChipmonkey it took Tanita a long time to come clean about her sexuality, and I get that she kept it private for a long time, because it must not be easy to come out. She may have expected backladh from her family, who knows. At the time of the making of this video, though, it was still very much a private thing. I wouldn't consider this lesbian erasure for that reason, but I do agree that a video documenting a love between two women would've been more appropriate in hindsight. It would add to the utter majesty of this fantastic and very much underrated song. Someone should come up with a new video to celebrate this song.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

@@MsChipmonkey I sincerely respect your point. But society was very homophobic in the eighties ( and forever previously) and artists were put under pressure to hide their sexuality and/ or did not want to be open about it in public for fear of the reaction. Prejudice has not gone away anywhere near as much as the media would have people believe in the UK where I live and in many other countries. There could be myriad reasons for a video's content but in the eighties it could be career limiting to be open for an artist.

[@danielkovacs1313]
