i've only heard Conscience, which I love, but to me nothing on it can touch Teardrops, bar Conscious of My Conscience, which I first heard on the henrik schwarz dj kicks and which is a total jam.

lots of tracks on that album match those two songs. 'missing person's bureau' is probably my favorite right now.

I can't stop listening to Love Wars. Super album, especially "APB" and "Good Times."

Used to play the 1st album on my university radio show. Need to track down these again. "Teardrops" sounds great despite the lyrics.

These days I find Love Wars a scarier record than Shoot Out the Lights or Blood on the Tracks.

they sure know how to create a sense of dread within a pop song

I got Radio M.U.S.I.C. Man today in mind condition thanks to Record Store Day -- the weakest of the three eighties releases to my ears. The singing and synth effects still top notch but there's no "TKO," "Love Wars," "Baby I'm Scared of You," or "Teardrops."

Love Wars should be as immense as Shoot Out The Lights, Blood on the Tracks, and Wild Gift as makeup-to-breakup classic. RIP.

ah man, W&W is my dad's favourite music, i used put their stuff on my radio shows as a kid all the time
paradise ballroom mix of MPB is all time
― Crackle Box, Monday, 4 February 2013 11:42 (eleven years ago) link
xpost.
Love Wars is essential. And it's easily found in most record store dollar bins. You'd think this record would have been lifted up with the rest of the recent modern soul surge.

Love Wars is classic indeed

yeah, that's a good one. i used to play that on repeat when i first found it.

''Love Wars' is a fantastic record...'Express Myself' is just lovely and their cover of 'Angie' is just sublime...RIP

"passion & pain" from the final '93 album, which i haven't seen yet in the wild. i did, however, find this 12, and it's loaded with those trademark w&w chords, rhythms, production. shit, so good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3p-dEnsro5I
