Cover art for True lyrics by Spandau Ballet

to me, this is a mix of unrequited love and the difficulty of the writer to express it over the sheet. "Listening to marvin all night long" is one of my favourite lines from a song ever, and it also enhances the belief that this song deals with a soul, an injured one.

when steve norman's saxophone starts playing in the instrumental break, that's when you really feel it, inside your soul. at least for me.
