Tragic Love In the 80s = 'Lament' by Ultravox (1984)
This edition of Tragic Love In The 80s features English new-wave band Ultravox and their 1984 love-ballad Lament. Ultravox have appeared before on this vlog's Top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown at #92, but they really do deserve more recognition as they had heaps of great songs that I recommend checking out. The London-based band had lots of changing members and frontmen, so check out their Wikipedia page for all of that info in detail HERE. The music video for this song features the band members visiting their lovers on a remote Scottish island. This song appeared on the band's Lament album in 1984, and it peaked at #22 on the UK music charts. Stay tuned, for there's more tragic 80's love songs yet to come.
