Godley And Creme - Cry (Polydor)

There are some things in life too precious for mere words. A beautiful sunrise; the Smiths; the sound of stud on bone as Graham Roberts rushes in for another tackle. Such is "Cry". Kevin Godley's pure, choirboy voice soars away, layer upon layer of sound floats around and you sit back and drink in the sparkling Trevor Horn production. Gloss with class and beauty. (Eleanor Levy, Record Mirror, April 6, 1985)

Jill: A weak ballad in amongst some nice synth sounds. Like most of the singles this week, it's produced by Trevor Horn. It's got a horrible ending that made my backbone go all squeegy. Rose: I like the sleeve - it reminds me of a dress I had when I was eight. (Jill Bryson & Rose McDowell [Strawberry Switchblade], Smash Hits, March 28, 1985)

Feels Like The First Time: The award winning video was the first to use computer morphing techniques - to great effect.
