Biography

Scottish post-punk pop group formed in Glasgow in 1979. Originally comprising Clare Grogan (vocals), Tony McDaid (guitar), John McElhone (bass), Gerard "Caesar" McInulty (guitar) and Michael "Tich" Anderson (drums). McInulty left in 1981 to form [a=The Wake] with Jim McKinven (guitar/keyboards) replacing him. They soon adopted synthpop stylings under the influence of producers including Martin Rushent and Mike Chapman. The group split in 1983 (Anderson and McKinven had already left the previous year). Clare (who had already appeared in the hit film "Gregory's Girl" in 1980) was also an actress appearing under the name CP Grogan. In December 2021, [a388950] announced that the first Altered Images album in over 38 years would be released in 2022, titled [Link]. [a388950] and with tracks co-written with Texas member [a396847] (who was the band's original bass player).

LYRICS

When you're tired
The world on your shoulders
And fear in your mind
When it's washed out
And comfort's an old friend
That's too hard to find
I'll be yours
I will be yours
I'll be yours
I will be yours
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

When you're silent
The waiting has worn and you are alone
When you're cryin'
For someone to hold you
A shoulder to lean on
I'll be yours
I will be yours
I will be yours
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Woah oh, woah oh
When you're tired
The world on your shoulders
The fear in your mind
When it's washed out
And comfort's an old friend
That's too hard to find
I'll be yours
