that topic title is misleading..

bernard QUIT singing lessons because
he DIDN'T want to end up like tony hadley.

maybe i read it wrong in thinking tony
gave him the advice.

there's some songs by spandau ballet
that are decent..

Ok, I'd like to make it VERY clear that Spandau were one of the bands that I really hated as a kid. There were some songs that stayed at No 1 for ages in the 80's which baffled me then and they baffle me now. "I just called..." by Stevie Wonder was one of them and "True" by Spandau was another. Oh and not forgetting that Lionel Ritchie dirge, "Hello". Oh lord i feel sick just mentioning these tunes. WHAT were people thinking when they bought these records?! I didn't get it then and I don't get it now.
But, courtesy of Billy Brag who wrote a song called "I dont need this pressure Ron" I became aware of a Spandau Ballet track that came out before they went all gooey. I genuinely like the chorus to this. I feel I've said too much already.

spandau ballet and duran duran
both competed in bringing
the 'new romantic' sound to people.

of course 'duran duran' won out,
and even are still going strong
to this day! so they are better
known. and i actually like them
also..

spandau ballet was much more
subdued, but they still had
their fans that have stuck with them.

tony hadley has a pretty good solo
career, and does tours with martin
fry of ABC.. they both sing a lot
of pop/rock hits besides the standard
stuff from their respective groups.

as far as singing voices go, they
are both up there as being unique,
along with peter cox of Go West,
and richard darbyshire of Living in a Box.
