  • Official video of Spandau Ballet performing 'Gold' from their 1983 third album 'True'.
    Gary Kemp wrote both the music and lyrics; the song was produced by the partnership of Steve Jolley and Tony Swain. The music video was filmed on location in Carmona, Spain and directed by Brian Duffy. The video featured Sadie Frost as a gold-painted nymph, in one of her earlier roles.
    Some parts of the music video were also filmed in Leighton House, which was also used in the video for "Golden Brown" by The Stranglers.
    40 Years - The Greatest Hits out now @ lnk.to/Spandau...
    Spandau Ballet are one of Britain’s great iconic bands having sold over 25 million records, scored numerous multi-platinum albums and amassed 23 hit singles across the globe since their humble beginnings as a group of friends with dreams of stardom in the late 1970s. It wasn’t long before they became fully-fledged members of the iconic Blitz Club scene and established themselves as one of the super-groups of the 80s.
    The band's classic line-up features brothers Gary and Martin Kemp on guitars, vocalist Tony Hadley, saxophonist Steve Norman and drummer John Keeble.
    Spandau Ballet’s hits include Gold, True, To Cut A Long Story Short, Through The Barricades and many more.

    Lyrics:
    Thank you for coming home
    Sorry that the chairs are all worn
    I left them here I could have sworn
    These are my salad days
    Slowly being eaten away
    Just another play for today
    Oh, but I'm proud of you, but I'm proud of you
    Nothing left to make me feel small
    Luck has left me standing so tall
    Gold
    (Gold)
    Always believe in your soul
    You've got the power to know
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in, 'cause you are
    Gold
    (Gold)
    Glad that you're bound to return
    There's something I could have learned
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in
    After the rush has gone
    I hope you find a little more time
    Remember we were partners in crime
    It's only two years ago
    The man with the suit and the face
    You knew that he was there on the case
    Now he's in love with you, he's in love with you
    But love is like a high prison wall
    And you could leave me standing so tall
    Gold
    (Gold)
    Always believe in your soul
    You've got the power to know
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in, 'cause you are
    Gold
    (Gold)
    I'm glad that you're bound to return
    There's something I could have learned
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in
    But love is like a high prison wall
    And you could leave me standing so tall
    Gold
    (Gold)
    Always believe in your - soul
    You've got the power to know
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in, 'cause you are
    Gold
    (Gold)
    I'm glad that you're bound to return
    Something I could have learned
    You're indestructible
    Always believe in
    (Gold)

Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Stay safe and keep on rocking in the '020s.

And those were the best times,without rancour or predudice. We just got on with it,loved and lost and he we are, had our "rebellion" and realised life is for living,memories of youth,old photos and the one by your side.Life is so finite,wring it by the neck untill it has nothing more to give....only then go quietly into the night.

      @@user-zc5ft9nw9b I disagree. Spandau in their day were an average teenybop band with one number one record in the UK called True. I don't recall one person at School or outside of school ( showing my age!) who liked Spandau. They liked Wham! George Michael, some liked Duran Duran and Madonna and Genisis and Peter Gabrial and U2. They were admired by people in their late teenage years and early twenties. I think it was those suits! Spandau had Gary Kemp. He was the talent. Honestly they are so overrated.I have read about court cases that are involving copyright and royalties and fallouts in this band. They say it is common in bands but the impression given back in the day is they were such good pals. You couldn't imagine that they'd have these business issues years later.

      I was only 10 when this was made but I always loved this song! Lots of songs i never saw the clips or even who sang it ha ha. Did not watch much MTV. Mostly radio. I only lke the music of that time and what my parents loved when they where young, 70's music. I stoped listening music after I was 20 for religious reason, but i did not miss a thing!! I heard all the great songs untill 1994. After that it was not much anyway.

    I'll never forget meeting Tony Hadley, I was nineteen years old, in the army and on my first tour (of Bosnia). He had come out to perform for the soldiers as part of a moral boosting thing. Being the modest guy that he is, he had decided to put combat 95's on with a WO1 rank slide and a RLC berret. Me being a naive teenager walked past him siting with a large group of soldiers, and I decide to brace up and say "good afternoon sir" (which was custom when confronted with someone of that rank, especially as a private). Of course everyone burst out with laughter to my astonishment, and he introduced himself to me in a casual cockney way. A great guy and a great performer, I'll never forget him singing this song in a hanger in Sipovo.

      i think the whole song is about his celebration of his lover's return.
      and by "your love is like a high prison wall" means that the love somewhat confined him, but also forcibly make him standing tall, eager to look beyond the wall. and thus, he's feeling really alive again.

    Not only great voices, but also the best dressers ever! These guys were extremely fashionable.

    There's something special about this song. I can't put my finger on it, but I can say that it gives me goosebumps whenever I listen to it.

      It is pretty great, yeah. I only discovered from some random meme on the internet, but I am surprised how good it is.

      Could it be the bongo riffs that compliment the song ?

    I was in high school when these guys appeared. ABC, Spandau Ballet, Specials, English Beat, Clash, Human League, Prince, Jam, the Police... the music was so diverse back then and I loved it all!

    That record is so clever and original. You listen to it and hear the little bits of music going on in the background and you think, someone thought of that. How it was to go. How it sounded. Utterly brilliant.
