This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was from their concert recorded live for the "Sight and Sound" TV program. This was where the show was broadcasted live on TV, and also simultaneously on an FM stereo radio broadcast. Interestingly, this track is introduced as "Transferred Affection" by Mike Score. Later, on the "Listen" album, the name was abbreviated to just "Transfer Affection".

Nov 24, 2007 - Ich habe die Band am 18.12.1982 in der Dortmunder Westfalenhalle live erlebt und war damals sehr beeindruckt. Die LP's und Maxi's lege ich heute noch gerne auf. Schade, dass die Band in der neuen Besetzung nicht in der nächsten Zeit in Deutschland auftritt. Würde mich sehr freuen.

Jan 31, 2008 - Hey, ur so right, my bunch used to wear 501's with legs sewn tight and then wear our penny loafers, we thought we were so "choice" We wore flourescent everything socks,skinny ties and bows in our hair.

Mar 9, 2008 - New Wave started because of them. They were 100% original, not like today bands that all are fabricated or copycats..

Jun 18, 2008 - I'm MADLY IN LOVE with all the people from the 80s posting here. It makes for a very cozy atmosphere. I wasn't around then, and I've regretted it ever since I was one second old. I knew something felt wrong coming out.

Jul 31, 2008 - Thanx for sharing !! Indeed : a very great tune !!!

ashingtoon Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - Saw AFOS when they supported Altered Images in Newcastle 1982 they were brilliant. This is a class class song. Yes the music sounds poor but you have all sorts of gizmos these days to boost even live songs, look at the X-Factor lot there shite really.

davidtaylorrose Says:

Oct 8, 2008 - I wonder if Paul has accidentally hit his guitar against something when he moves side to side and back and forth
