Lyrics:
My love and I, we work well together
But often we're apart
Absence makes the heart lose weight, yeah,
Till love breaks down, love breaks down
Oh my, oh my, have you seen the weather
The sweet september rain
Rain on me like no other
Until I drown, until I drown
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down
The lies we tell,
They only serve to fool ourselves,
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down,
Love breaks down
#PrefabSprout #WhenLoveBreaksDown #Vevo
Those who weren’t around in the 80’s shall never know how happy we were, how everything was so colourful, so blissful… the feeling of waiting for the phone to call, the post to arrive, meeting friends at a local joint with no need to pencil a day or time, etc etc life was sooooo joyful. If only we could go back…
perfectly summed up, shall we go back ? x
Melissa, if you find or invent a time machine, please buzz me.
*I wanna a seat on that amazing trip back to the awesome 80s ...*
No worries about Internet access, or flicking through hundreds of TV channels for hours. You rarely hear about depression suicide. I'm missing the 80s.
Ain’t that the truth
Oui c vrai qu'elle vérité une musique qui nous est particuliere
In all honesty, to this day I think they are still a totally underrated band.
ah there we go. This band was always going to be a comically outstanding candidate for triggering the youtube comments section 'underrated' fetish. I wonder what drives this bizarre psychosis psychologically.
Very underrated band.i agree.iloved them.
totally . Bought the album on which this song is on - Fabulous album & totally underrated talent
you got it !
Same just a beautiful band
Still can not believe how lucky we were in the 80s …. The music , the freedom , so many friends …the best time ever ! I will take all those memories in to my grave 😍
Infatti... .una MAGIA che non tornerà più ma rimarrà INDELEBILMENTE impressa come MEMORIA ad ETERNO frattale della coscienza individuata.... ✋✋✋👑
The 80s music was most probably the era of life for everyone.
There will never be a better musical era in my old eyes.
So many great bands,so many great songs and I was younger then
@@steveking2337 Bro I am a black dude from Detroit. I used to walk around with my ghetto blaster rocking this song. I was totally into Alt.music. Picture a black dude with a mohawk blasting The Cramps and Billy Idol in the hood. Oh yeah, I was a really good fighter. lol. Great days.
Probably the only decent comment ive seen here @@JTKAMInice stuff
...NO BIRTH, NO DEATH, ONLY LIGHT
Nov 2024. This song still makes me shiver at 64
I hear this jewel the rest of my life, in honor to the 80s and my youth.
its such a song of its time.absolutely mesmerising.
it took four re-releases, but this track eventually became the band's first hit - and deservedly so.
Wow I never knew it took 4 re release’s I would of thought this would of smashed it up on its 1st release
@@andrewjones7218yep, absolutely scandalous. Belter of a love song.
@@StephenRiley-sz2vc I can’t believe it took 4 releases before it was a hit … unbelievable
Surprised it took only four. If it hadn't worked the fourth time would they have tried a fifth? I mean .. four times? Ought that not to tell them something?
@@brandpartnersukYes, they were too good for mass appeal.
Oh......what a memories......the best decade of my life. Now 57 and this music still makes me shiver.
🙏❤
So true😊
Lucky enough to see them at the Royal Court Liverpool, probably 1989, absolutely awesome best band I ever saw live. Totally underrated.
I think I took the 80s for granted in a way, looking forward at how things would get better, but not realising it had already got as good as it was going to get.
40 years on, and still gives me goosebumps
Oooh oui j'ai toujours la chair de poule aussi❤
Soooo true😊
Still gives me goosebumps over 40 years later! So underrated but Paddy's lyrics are pure poetry and they will always be relevant!
Me too and i am 54 year now
... and I have turned 78 and still they "rock" in my heart🤗👍🎶
Die Poesie wird Niemals aussterben ❤❤❤
38 years later
@@colinobrien4480 It was a rough on the spot guess, and any way, who's counting when we get to our age lol......I tend to remember the times when I first heard it but in anycase, this is one of the groups that I have on Vinyl and I won't be giving them away just yet! Have a great day
I count myself very fortunate to've been around in the 1980s, enjoying music like this, & even more fortunate to still have the same circle of friends from those days. Priceless.
Same! It was a magical time, with I had a time machine!
Those of us who lived in the 80's are both blessed and cursed to have experienced the magic of such a emotionally charged musical era during our formative years. The bar was set so high we thought we'd have it forever only to realize years later what we had and never to go back. The era to me represents the quintessential meaning of saudade. Having lived in the 80s and what it was makes the current scene appear quite dismal and hopeless.
I have the same thought, those times will never come back. Precious times.
Yep, sad but true! An era that was magical in many ways!
The past is a different country. We are explorers.
You really do speak for so many of us, both about this song, the music of the time, and the culture then, when there was still time enough, and love.
Little did we know that then eh? I agree my friend ..time machine would be amazing!!
One of the greatest songs of the 80s. Catchy tune, clever lyrics. Love it!
i agree one of the songs 80's greatest'...catchy tune no...the story, heartfelt lyrics, sort of gets in your mind
@@cesirwin1973: never forget the feeling of your youth, it was our best time.....
yes i agree, the memories of my youth keep me young in older aged 66@@silkiway
@silkiway
So how did you first hear them
@@cesirwin1973 I'm born in 1970, first time I heard them , it was 1986/87 ,it sounds like a little bit of Simply Red. I also like them very much. Have a good time.
Hands up who’s still blasting this out in 2022. So underrated.
Blasting it out today 2/2/2024. Very underrated group.
6/2/24 🙌🙏
from 2024❤
Jan '25!
The British music scene of the 80s was such a rich tapestry musical styles, that was built on the solid bedrock of the past.
This! I feel most of today’s mainstream music has thrown the baby out with the bath water with regard to “classical” routes.
@@SubManifest It's still in alive and well in the indie world. If you like Prefab Sprout, look for a band called Stars from Montreal. Their music is very Prefab Sprout coded, along with Saint Etienne among others.
" My love and I, we are boxing clever..." What a line. Sums up everything about a relationship that's drifting. Thanks Paddy
Forty years later and I’m hearing the right lyrics just now
1985, I was 23 and the world was a much nicer place. Thank heaven for Prefab Sprout and Paddy's fantastic voice.
Agreed about to turn 63. Best time of my life was the 1980s. Best decade of music.
Nothing beats the 80s ❤
The 70's !?
@@chelon4983I agree. 70's
This video was directed by Tim Broad, who passed away at just 38 in 1993. I had the pleasure of meeting him in Manchester four years prior to his passing, and he was one of the nicest men you could hope to meet.
❤very special. Wow 🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆
How this group does not have multiple grammy awards astounds me! One of the greatest bands of all time!
I would have to say that it's because the 80's was filled with talent! So many awesome bands like Tears for Fears etc.....we were spoiled for sure!!!
@@littlenige purple rain by prince and ocean rain by echo and the bunnyman both came out in 84 and this album steve mcqueen was a year later. 3 of my favorite albums ever along with the tears for fears record songs from the big chair and heaven 17 penthouse and pavement
I agree with the previous commments. Since I worked in music retail for 30 years since the mid-80's and learned how the entire machine worked, I came to a conclusion. The corporate ear and the listeners ears are different. Some artists, frankly, were just too good for radio. Their sound was atmospheric and sophisticated when programmers wanted simplicity. Image also played It's part. Some bands didn't get airplay or consideration because of how they looked. Prefab Sprout, I believe, to some looked ordinary and was marketed well. I could name several others as you likely can as well. This was unfortunate because that's how many artists were missed. Imagine how many more we would have missed had it not been for MTV and VH-1? Also for magazines like "Star Hits" which showed us the bands, pictures of say Great Britain, and interviews with them. A shout also goes to university radio who gave exposure to lesser known bands both US and abroad. Lastly the independent record stores for they were place to find the obscure and new MTV bands. The 90's had a nice surge of indie and international artists. I believe in response to Grunge. We from the 80's weren't all about doom, gloom, angst, and fear of tomorrow.
@@littlenigeI agree. Spoiled and overwhelmed. Because with the thousands of CDs and cassettes I collected, I'm always finding something I had a bit of and now am fully appreciating thru an in-depth listen or rediscovery. Even totally missed some, because of an uneventful single or album at that time. Now decades later realizing they never disbanded and just weren't played or seen here kn the US much anymore. Nick Heyward of Haircut 100 is my latest. Prefab Sprout has been a constant.
Nostalgia is exquisitely painful.
Wow! Beautifully said!
you mean painfully exquisite.... yes it is :(
@Ildiko Nagyova I think it means you enjoy the feeling it evokes… but that in itself feels painful because it’s of a different time that is no more. But you still enjoy being there back in that moment
And yet so beautiful ...
Bitter sweet
It's almost heartbreaking to realise this was a wonderful time we will never get back.
And we didn’t appreciate it at the time
True.
@franz 4ever This had me in stitches.
TH-cam brings you back every time to things you wanna get nostalgic about. Make a playlist and play it often, it WILL bring you back. Better still get your partner to sit down and listen to it with you. :)
Distain earthly pleasure, seek glory through Christ in the original Orthodox Church.
When love breaks down
The lies we tell,
They only serve to fool ourselves,
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
I'm no lyrics guy, but Paddy was a real wordsmith. Prefab are a criminally underrated band! Timeless songs.
And he gets better with age... th-cam.com/video/R9982wYPPm0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
I just discovered this song and I consider myself quite knowledgeable about 80s song. But this song is immediately at the top of my list. I wonder if there's any others that sound similar!
@George2647g ... Hi fella, "giv this song a shot" .... I forgot ths song years ago, heard it again abt a month ago, & I ain't stopped playing it... Billy Idol (eyes without a face).. let me kno wht you think 🤔
@@George2647gThis is really the only song they’re known for in the US, but thanks to the Interwebs I got to hear more of them! The Go-Betweens sound similar to my ear (had seen their name on a album sleeve back in the day, but only listened to them in the last few years)
Gary/,SA Waterfall also one of the best songs / well done
Some songs just hit you emotionally this is one ! A true classic !!!
this song reminds me of my younger ages when i have health (now I'm in Disease of Parkinson's ) this makes me remember about my bright days. the lyrics' beautiful...
Thank You for your consideration.
God bless you.
Take good care of yourself. Saw Wendy Smith tonight radiant as ever at Bridie Jackson and the Arbor gig in my village
sorry to hear your health isn't good but thank god for music is something that can make us feel better and bring back good memories, it doesn't ease the pain but it sure as hell makes life more bearable.
Kevin O Gorman as you say, some kind of the music can make me feel better and sometimes It gives immediate relief for my pain. and as you say, We need endurance to maintain faith... like Job in the Bible. I always thank God because that I believe a music is the Gift from God to the Mankind. so I enjoyed it everyday.
One of the most beautiful songs ever, fact.
Listening Nov 2020 - To try to escape to a BETTER time...... I would give everything to go back to the 80's.
The 80s were awful. Nostalgia is healing. That’s all.
beautiful days and memories....magic youth simple and genuine
this is a beautiful song.
👍👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
The 80's, when the world was a better place ❤
One of the most underrated groups of the '80s.
Underrated by who?. They were excellent.
One of the best groups of Theo 80's
@@davidevans4089 These "underrated" commenters are the worst. They don't seem to grasp the definition.
@@clvrswine Yes but it's not really their fault. Their generation has been encouraged to post every single thing they think on the internet for likes.
I think it’s you who don’t know what underrated means: they were clearly one of the very best bands of the 80s, but never got the success they deserved. That’s what underrated means, underestimated, by radios, and audiences: they should have sold 3 or 4 times more records than they did. Do you get it now?
The kids of today have no idea just how good the music was back then. Or at 62 am I just repeating what my grandparents used to say to me back then.🌹
you're definitely just repeating your Grandparents words! I'm 18, and i have a great idea of how good the music was. but a lot of it was bad too, same as any decade. there's still amazing music being released to this day!
No pomposity intended but Sprout were a breath of fresh air just when we most needed it - intelligent, heart felt songs, great playing, no artifice just magic. Stu X

your post cut me to the core, i am a widow 12 years, i am 66, i was married in 1980, 35yrs married....i just went very silent.....people around me of personality have private jokes about me,.....they think loud is everything...........if you love someone you sing and shout it from the montain tops, when you lose that you lose that joy
So true🤔🙂
May 2024……what a tune! Better than all the shite in the charts today!
What a fantastic song. It's not until you look back in time to realise how good these tunes are 😍😍
And those lyrics are a real kicker..
Maybe I'm old at 53 but the videos of the 80's songs are so iconic no need to be half naked full of plastic looking miserable
The ladies in 80's videos have natural beauty and amazing musical talent
Again i may just be old but glad to be
Oi. 59. Leave it.
I'm 47 I remember some of the songs as I was very young but even in the Late 80s going to secondary School listening to Bryan Adams Bon Jovi you would still here to early 80s music at times, I remember Live Aid at Christmas just all thoses moments, then you got the early 90s with REM and the likes that I think was infulanced by the 80s music. Even their music videos were done in Black and white same with alot of early 90s it changed alot then to more modern pop and some new rock. I think the 90s pop music was not the same but was still good. But then after 2001 music started to go down hill with with Theses manifacture pop bands that only last a few years, which was awful, I've listed to bands that didn't last in the 90s that I thought were amazing and still better that thoses manifactured bands of the X factor.
Ho 61 anni e questa musica l'adoro tutt'ora e pure le mie figlie
Hey! 53 is NOT old😅
no you are spot on, live long mate and speak your mind
This song is so hauntingly beautiful that I've never forgotten it since my childhood days
Superbe chanson !!! Je ne peux pas être plus explicite. Toute ma jeunesse
A great and very underrated band. Enjoying the wave of nostalgia.
When love breaks down the things you do to stop the truth from hurting you. We try everything to hold ourselves together.
Bless the 80’s , bless Paddy and bless you all❤
when love breaks down you join the wrecks who leave there hearts for easy sex
What makes this song poignant for me is that Paddy's love also broke down
@@johnjameson6751 yes , you’re right, that’s so sad 😞
Btw I think the 1985 live performance of this in Munich is even better
@@johnjameson6751 I’ll have a look at that. Thank you, take care.
one of the best songs ever written .
The more I listen to it, the more I am convinced of how intelligent and refined the bass part is
Oh yes the bass - Rickenbacker - is played well and perfect for the song.
My son was raised from toddler hood on Prefab Sprout & he's 35 now and still plays and loves these songs. I think Wendy's backing vocals are just perfect to accompany Paddy. They really were a fantastic band and so many of their songs move me to tears & bring back bittersweet memories of a time now past.
Paddy and Prefab Sprout, was a great inspiration for me , one of my best bands. Amazing 1984
These songs are so bittersweet...I love to listen to them, but they also make me sad to realize how quickly time goes by and also how much time has passed since my 20s.
Dash Riprock so sweet and yet so sad.......
I know I.m 60 now
So true
So trrue
So true
Brilliant song, great lyrics.
The whole.musuc industry was on fire in 80s. Amongst countless best things happening to me.the music and.movies was the most exciting thing around
The album Steve McQueen is a classic and immediately takes me back to 1986 and sharing extremely chilled times with mates in horrible Staines of all places. I was lucky enough to see them play the Aston Villa Leisure Centre, a perfect size location for me. 2 or 3,000 if I remember correctly a few years later! I categorise their music and lyrics with others who I respect like Paul Heaton, Paul Weller and Mark Hollis from Talk Talk.
This voice, this melody, Paddy is a genius.
Moved into a flat 80s. Only music I had was prefab sprout cassette. Fond memories
One of the greatest songs, ever.
Agreed 🤟
@Sean Gavin Mediocde. He haz bedded zongz
🙄🤦?????! Wtf
@@Eleventhearlofmars its better to look stupid than do something and prove it
I agree - I feel this song matches japanese artist Tatsuro Yamashita in many of his songs vibes - i recommend..
"Steve McQueen" was one of the greatest album of the 80s
Absolutely! ABC's Lexicon of Love is up there too.
It was actually called “Two Wheels Good”, don’t know why they changed the name....
starsky hutch . They had to change the title or face a possible law suit from the estate of the actor Steve McQueen. So if you have an original album with that name it’s a rare piece of vinyl.
Remember buying the album on the Saturday went to see Bruce Springsteen at Leeds on the Sunday what a weekend that was
yes it was
i first heard this on the john peel show that guy had good taste in music
Prefab Sprout is so underrated, the melody suits perfectly this wonderful lyrics
Bravo
Bravo
Magic
It’s fantastic
Yes underrated, but NEXT flix bringing them back king of rock and roll
Reminds me of Dream Academy - their melodies that is.. kind of groovy.. I heard this when I was a kid but no idea who they were and heard it again listening to KROQ of the 80s on radio dot com app and instantly added it to my playlist.
A beautiful song with so much emotion, haunting and poignant at the same time. It goes straight to the heart everytime. The magic of the eighties is right here. Feb 2021🙏❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤🙏

Takes me back 35 yrs in an instant to my first love. Beautiful song with real lyrics with true meaning. Seen her a while back at her brothers funeral. It was like a year had passed since i last saw her. Im already in a relationship and probably wont ever see her again. Music is so powerful, especially when a song like this comes along. I need to check out more Paddy Mcaloon. What a song writer. Thanks for the memories Paddy. God bless. 🙏

''Takes me back 35 yrs in an instant to my first love''. I relate to this only too well.
I can't always stand to listen to music like this - it triggers so much... What was, what might have been, the terrible mistakes I made. It's a strange thing, nostalgia ... in part, one of life's greatest joys, but at the same time, so painful.

How good were the 80s❤
天才ソングライターが産み出した傑作✨
Reminds me of a time in the 80's when life was great !.. My relationship at the time with someone I fell in love with.. was both exciting.. and at the same time sad!. This song reminds me of when love breaks down. You love the girl with all your heart.. but no matter what you try to do, things don't work out, and it was hard listening to this song at the time , knowing full well you are with your girlfriend, and knowing this relationship is going nowhere!...Beautiful Classic Song! .One of my all time favourites.
Merci Dacia !!!!
Mais c'est pas pour cela que j'en achèterai une...

Different time. In some ways a better simpler time
@@alanmike6883 in ALL ways a simpler better life. I'd swap this life for that one any day
80s music the best.
However I must be the only person who looks back on the 80s (my entire teenage years) with utter distain. It was an absolutely horrible time. A boring, apathetic, lost, confusing, lonely time.
I think many people mistake a "simpler" time to a "better" time.
My 40s (2010s) have been the best time of my life and that includes going through a divorce and cancer! I fell 10 time more alive today than I did as a teen in the 80s. Must be a mental thing. I much prefer being grown up than being a child. Everything and everyone is clearer.

The part with Wendy shedding a tear is magic. The look on her face is so beautiful but so sad. I miss her in this wonderful band.
Wow! Haven’t heard this in about 40 years… great song to listen to again.
Sounds like it was recorded tomorrow. Still spectacular.
Timeless genius.
except foe this super british voice. thats not coming again. thats 80s
Thomas dolby's production on this whole album is surprisingly elegant, lean, pared down. devoid of MOST 80s trappings. no gated snares or cheap DX patches. lots of real guitar and bass and drum sounds. Yes, 80s stentorian voice is the giveaway. but i LOVE his voice here. and the britishness is toned down in comparison to the likes of Bowie...
The sentiment is timeless, good tune

We were the luckiest generation ever no one will ever forget the 80s
so true !
Early 80s late 80s not so much
I'm weeping now for a beautiful time which will only return in memories. This song, for many (myself included) symbolises the end of the eighties, when life was the best it could ever be. And if only our tears could form a river from now to that treasured time, we would all catch the boat to be there - and never return, always in a utopia of permanent love and great music.
What a beautiful thing to say. I couldn't have put it better myself xx
Listening it in 2021.......it look still amazing as it it was in 80's
Absolutely girl 💖
On ne s'en lasse pas 🤩quel groupe merveilleux

"When Love Breaks Down"
My love and I, we work well together
But often we're apart
Absence makes the heart lose weight, yeah
Till love breaks down, love breaks down
Oh my, oh my, have you seen the weather
The sweet September rain
Rain on me like no other
Until I drown, until I drown
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down
The lies we tell
They only serve to fool ourselves
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down, when love breaks down
My love and I, we are boxing clever
She'll never crowd me out
Fall be free as old confetti
And paint the town, paint the town
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurtin' you
When love breaks down
The lies we tell
They only serve to fool ourselves
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurtin' you
When love breaks down
The lies we tell
They only serve to fool ourselves
When love breaks down
The things you do
To stop the truth from hurting you
When love breaks down
You join the wrecks
Who leave their hearts for easy sex
When love breaks down
When love breaks down
Perfect purely perfection ❤❤❤❤❤
I only discovered this group 2 years ago and only today did i realize this was an 80s band. I honestly thought they were an indie group from today's music. Such a great group!
But... you found them & that's what matters
One of the best songs of the 80's. Pure class.
Cant stop playing this record reminds me of my lost love i still think of 25 years ago
What a timeless classic.
Très bon groupe des années 80 que j'aimais écouter, toute ma jeunesse.
This guy this group, one of the most underrated songwriter/ performer of the 20th century.!! CRUEL
why cruel ? he may be doing quite fine
Coz he should be embarrassing HIMSELF now on the world's stage instead of Yoko Bono or Stung, and any other lesser contemporary artist of his you care to mention (imho!). :-)
Clever complete product the whole works from top to tail
totally agree, masterful lyrics, such an amazing singer/ song writer, Bonny is my fave
dav01kar It's crueler than cruel!
You can tell this is an old song, it's just so good.
Absolutely brilliant lyrics with terrific music I think this band were well ahead of their time
Definitely, yes indeed.
I still come back this fabulous song. Lyrics and music are magic!
Steve Mcqueen an absolute masterpiece of an Album, I played it to death in the 80s and still do today! Timeless, thanks for everything Paddy!
Prefab Sprout is more than music, there are no words to describe it, it just is...
Neither punk nor heavy metal?
Glory
It's pure 80's nostalgic gold.Love it and when we enjoyed more freedom. Great days!
'My love and I, we are boxing clever'...........Wonderful lyric. I don,t know why it is, but it just is.
Great song by a great songwriter.
Don’t let this masterpiece disappear !
Tellement belle ❤
I won't.
I listen to the radio several hours a day and I've never heard a better song than this. Paddy McAloone is an absolute genius and his age is similar to Neil Finn, another genius. What a wonderful world we live in when we can enjoy such incredible song writing.
TH-cam is a wonderful time machine what ever age you are.
This song Makes me so sad! Melancholy invades me
Powerful vocals from paddy 😂
