Talk Talk - "Life's What You Make It"

[Pet Shop Boy]

#90 Hot 100 and a top 20 UK hit for this band. They're best known for 'It's My Life' (Later covered by No Doubt). But this is just as good IMO. It's been remixed frequently, and works excellently as a dance song.

Good song , I think their later work was even more impressive (Spirit of Eden , Laughing Stock)

I got to know this song well as it's part of the GTA: Vice City game. Good stuff!

Never heard of this one until I dug up the video on YouTube. Interesting song. The only other Talk Talk songs I'm familiar with are "It's My Life" and "Talk Talk" (the song).

One of the best songs ever created by humans.

I was going to make a thread for it, but luckily found a preexisting one.

What an empowering, yet essentially existentialist anthem. I guess that's the beauty I find in it (aside from the terrific musicianship at hand).

I've been thoroughly enjoying their entire catalogue for the past few months and I agree, though their new wave albums are pretty strong. Also, I adore Mark Hollis' voice.

I love it. One of my favorites by them.

Forgot about this one. Yes I remember this from GTA Vice City.
