I recall him saying “I’d rather died thousands deaths than sounding anything like Yazoo and Depeche Mode” 27, 28 years ago. Ha ha. …Competition, eh!
Yep. You’re totally right about what you’ve said.
“Blind Youth” is one of the finest Human League songs ever. I like Phil’s deep as voice in it a lot.
His very honest answer towards the end made me gutted, actually. “I wish it never stopped. I still miss Martyn and Ian very much ’cause we had such a great laugh.”
Exactly. I have …
Exactly. I have read about it. In short it is like that Human League song which goes- “No future they say. But must it be that way? Now is calling… We should be happy, we should be glad, high rise living is not so bad, blind youth take hope…”. It sums up the general attitude of people in Sheffield.
I like Philip Oakey’s answer towards the end as well. He makes it seem so simple.
Ha ha…!! So did I …
Ha ha…!! So did I! Another class response indeed.
It doesn’t just show the work ethic and the liveliness of the artists living in Sheffield but a lot of other things as well. Their right to have/organize a party, DIY ethic, their rebellion towards the conservative/old fashioned way of thinking, their looking into the future, breaking boundaries…etc etc. Practically all the things a true artist should do.
“What’s your …
“What’s your favourite TV programme?”
-TV? We used to be out 6 days a week
Loved that answer. It just shows the work ethic and the liveliness of the artists living in Sheffield.
Jarvis er is …
Jarvis er is one of the coolest figures in music ever IMO. Just imagine what he did behind Michael Jackson during the Brits 1995. And I say rightly so!
I always enjoy watching the doc a lot. And I watched it many times so far. It’s never boring and tiresome. Can’t wait for the next chapter of the story!

Yes, that is …
Yes, that is entirely true but you’ll never know whether he’ll decide to come back into the band by the start of the tour or not at all. With musicians anything’s possible. He hasn’t left them for good. There was no official statement of his of that. He’s just doing some other things at the moment. Checked it better on their official site’s message board. He’s a lovely fella, isn’t he?
You sure bout that …
You sure bout that ?

He’s in Heaven 17 …
He’s in Heaven 17 and British Electric Foundation (B.E.F.). No recent news on him although he’ll be touring UK together with the fellow city mates ABC and The Human League from November 30th to December 13th as a part of the Steel City Tour. There you go!
