Number 154: The Psychedelic Furs - Heartbreak Beat

One of the most famous of the post-punk bands, Richard Butler and the Psychedelic Furs formed in 1977 but achieved real success when they embraced New Wave in 1981 with their album Talk Talk Talk. By 1987 and their Midnight To Midnight album, they were established superstars. "Heartbreak Beat" is actually their biggest chart hit in the United States, hitting the top 20. I have it at #154 on my Top 200.

    I remember when this came out, I was stunned at how the cover photographer managed to make these particularly hideous Englishmen look so glam.

    I was always more of a Forever Now guy
