Anyone else think that Richard Butler sounds like a British Michael Stipe? Their voices are soooo similar. 
The Furs make the kind of Roxy Music meets Moody Blues Music that I find pleasant despite Butler’s obnoxious pretentious sounding voice?. 
Side One is the definition of Day-Glo 80s for me. I’m lost in nostalgia. It’s cold in New York in the winter and we all use Tiger Balm and smoke clove cigarettes and I pine after the girl down the hall who doesn’t know I exist. 
Side Two is nearly negligible.
