It's a great song; however, it got released late in the USA. It took more than a year before A&M Records released it as a single because there was no album for it. When the Human League wrote Fascination, A&M had them record one more song (I Love You Too Much) to release a 6 song mini LP. FASCINATION! I have a 12" single of Mirror Man which runs 4:21.

@@Gunzee at that time, everything was done on analog tape. Digital recordings didn't exist until about 1983, when Sony started introducing the Compact Disc. The state of the art studio tape was Ampex 456 2 inch wide 24 track analog recording tape. Tascam reel to reel 24 track recorders were state of the art analog machines in the studio. What you hear is quite raw with no pitch control or compressor.

Luv this tune..writing is brilliant. I luv the opening metaphor of a pebble skipping across the lake, etc. Brilliant! No one writes like this anymore now it´s f** the bitch, f** this, get our drink on now, re-making others music, etc. Pitiful; so glad I grew up in 80/90´s when songs still existed about love & feelings because of luv & not in the current genre. No wonder there´s no morals anymore...people write about what they know, feel, desire & if all you care about is getting drunk, stoned & having sex (promiscuity) well, that´s what´s gonna get written about. Nice little flashback here, great group w many songs & videos I enjoy (did we really dress like that in the 80´s? lol). Yeah, I know...showin my age! lol aloha... ;-)

I first heard this on the radio while driving on Interstate 55 in the summer of 1983 and have never forgotten this song. I've loved this song ever since that day. It didn't seem to get a lot of airplay back then on St. Louis radio, but sounds just as amazing in 2023 as it did in 1983.

One of the best bands from the eighties and beyond that I never saw.Phil Oakley was such abeautifl english specimen.I liked his long swath of hair for awhile.Dare is one of the best albums.Dont know this album .Burning babies got a lot of attention.I still dontknow why and analbum before dare didnt hold my attention but their attention to detail and way of making endearing pop about uncommon pop themes and with strange then to our ears synth sounds is unforgettable.

I saw the Human League at an outdoor amphitheater in Cary, NC, USA in 2008 or so. They were with Belinda Carlisle and I believe ABC and likely another band. They played well and sounded good. The conditions were cool and rainy to light drizzling. We were standing right in front of the stage. Phil Oakey during a musical interlude in one of their songs smiled and moved right in front of us and said to us that these were the (atmospheric) conditions where they were from (in England). He was very friendly and really nice and funny and professional.

@lunes-1 I agree and I know what it is for me: it's the melody and the textlines of the two couplets. The refrain ('Here comes the mirror man...and so on) actually doesn't do it for me. But the other parts ('The water shines... and later 'And if it seemes...) have a magic result on me. It is sang powerful yet vulnerable and a bit melodramatic of content. And it sure makes me wanna copy Phil's voice 100% again and again. But I do realize that might be my very personal thing with this song. Though I spoke about with my brother who feels exact the same (must be the blood connection).
