even knowing everything about 80's music i somehow missed the song Louise by Human League..i know it was a hit in the UK but it was never released as a single here in the states so thats probably how i missed it but since seeing them perform the song in concert i cant get it out my head and i even downloaded the video cool song


When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say

Hello, louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?
As if we were still lovers

She took a moment just to recognise the man she’d known so well before
And as he started to apologise
Lose any bitterness she bore
She gently put her finger on his lips
To let him know she understood
And with her suitcase standing on the floor
Embraced him like a lover would

He told louise
You look so good
It’s just you see
You make me feel
As if we were still lovers

It’s not always true that time heals all wounds
There are wounds that you don’t wanna heal
The memories of something really good
Something truly real, that you never found again

And though they talked for just a little time
Before she said she had to go
He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
That told him all he had to know

And so louise
Waved from the bus
And as she left
She gave that smile
As if they were still lovers

ive never heard of this tune before. they had quite a few hits. but this one doesnt ring any bells. i will find out.

Great song! The Human League are the dog's bollocks!

Yes, I remember this song and the video. Wasn't he on a barge, singing into a dictaphone?

i dont beleive it was released as a single here in the U.S but i think they should have released it as the follow up single to Fascination instead of The Lebanon
