Biography

Major 70s UK (founded in Stockport, Greater Manchester, England) pop/artrock band. The original line-up of [a=Eric Stewart], [a=Kevin Godley], [a=Lol Creme] and [a=Graham Gouldman] had composed together and been in the band [a=Hotlegs] (Gouldman only briefly) before forming 10cc in 1972 and signing with [a=Jonathan King]'s [l=UK Records] after being turned down by [l=Apple Records]. The band's music is a blend of pop, artrock often drawing on other genres, on the debut album especially the 50s. The original line-up lasted four years, reaching worldwide success in 1975 with the ballad "I'm Not In Love." In 1976 Godley and Creme left to form the more arty [a=Godley & Creme] while Stewart and Gouldman continued as 10cc. The first album by the new 10cc, the 1977 "Deceptive Bends" maintained the pop appeal of the group, but after 1978 hit "Dreadlock Holiday" from "Bloody Tourists" and Stewart's crisis following a car crash the band never returned to the major pop league. PS: some releases may have 10CC as the artist. This isn't a ANV, as ANV doesn't apply for variations in capitalization [g2.5.7]

LYRICS

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea,
You lay your bets and then you pay the price
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned and all the lines are down
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.
A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree to part
When after all it's just a compromise of
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
