Biography

UK post-punk band formed in 1977, London, by brothers [a=Tim Butler] and [a=Richard Butler]. The band released eight studio albums to date and have been produced by a variety of producers, such as [a=Steve Lillywhite], [a=Todd Rundgren], [a=Keith Forsey], [a=Chris Kimsey], [a=David M. Allen] and [a=Stephen Street]. Their 1981 song "Pretty In Pink" was picked by director [a=John Hughes (17)] as the title of his 1986 teen movie and the re-made version of the song became their biggest hit until then. Other highlights of their catalogue are "Love My Way", "Sister Europe" and their biggest US hit "Heartbreak Beat". In 1991 they went on hiatus while [a=Richard Butler] and [a=Tim Butler] launched a new group, [a=Love Spit Love] that lasted for two albums (1991 & 1997). In 1996, singer [a=Richard Butler] released his self-titled solo album. The Furs reformed in 2000 for the release of a live album and, since then, the band continue to tour. They released a new studio album in 2020, the first since 1991.

LYRICS

I'm a heartbreak beat
Yeah, all night long
And nobody don't dance
On the edge of the dark
We've got the radio on
And it feels like love
But it don't mean a lot
And it feels like love
And it's all that we've got

There's a heartbreak beat
Playing all night long
Down on my street
And it feels like love
Got the radio on
And it's all that we need
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love

And the beat don't stop
And we talk so tough
And there's a perfect kiss
Somewhere out in the dark
But a kiss ain't enough
And the world don't stop
Everytime that you call
And the world don't stop
Everytime that you fall

There's a heartbreak beat
Playing all night long
Down on my street
And it feels like love
Got the radio on
And it's all that we need
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love

I'm a heartbreak beat
Yeah, all night long
And nobody don't dance
On the edge of the dark
We've got the radio on
And it feels like love
But it don't mean a lot
And it feels like love
And it's all that we've got

There's a heartbreak beat
Playing all night long
Down on my street
And it feels like love
Got the radio on
And it's all that we need
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love
There's a heartbreak beat
And it feels like love

There's a heartbreak beat
I'm a heartbreak beat
I'm a heartbreak beat
I'm a heartbreak beat
