Visage - Fade To Grey, 1980
British pop band formed in 1978 by Steve Strange and Rusty Egan with members from Ultravox, Magazine, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. Visage were at the center of the burgeoning New Romantic fashion movement of the early 1980 and Fade To Grey is an amazing track and the band’s most relevant and successful single. The lyrics and melody were composed by Midge Ure and Billie Currie of Ultravox; the French vocal was performed by Brigitte Arendt, a young student from Luxembourg who was Rusty Egan’s girlfriend at the time.
