I just checked Wiki and it says this song only reached #104 in the US :o >:( I have the Polydor 45 RPM back home!! It was a hit, very popular in 1983. It showcased Robin's falsetto and high tones. The video was all medieval fun :) another good pop 80s record for Robin.
A creepy interesting fact: Back in 1983 some radios back home would play back to back two Shakespearian songs popular at that time, released the same year within weeks of each other: "Juliet" from Robin Gibb's second album 'How Old Are You?' and "Romeo" by Donna Summer from the 'Flashdance' soundtrack. I hadn't heard both songs within a 7-day period probably since the 80s :o
What a sucky year so far :'(

Thank you for posting. An interesting song that I never even knew existed or that it was even released. The Bee Gees were charting in the US in 1983 as a group, so this solo effort surprises me.
