My theory, tongue in cheek. Green Gartside and Paddy McAloon. Non-identical twins tragically separated at birth? To experience the glorious melodies of one of them in your lifetime is lucky. Both of them? Well, that's heavenly good fortune.

Is that a real orch. or sample library? Sounds great! Be nice to bring a little funk back in a new song. Green's got the voice for it

I come back to this song every so often for the riff loop that starts 4:21 - totally amazing harmonics, crisp clear guitar sound.

He does a cracking version of this live. In fact, he's never sounded better.

That bass line in the last part is so awesome.

Regarding the ending vamp for the last 1:45, that is the smoothest most gorgeous piece of sonic bliss. Damn..

Why haven't more people allowed their ears this sonic candy? Truly beautiful and shows how clever Green Gartside was and......is!

@fonzithornton Screen Kiss is one of my favourite songs. Scritti Politti and Thomas Dolby are two of my very favourite artists. They were my eighties.

That ending coda...Green Gartside, man, evrything you touch is gold. But this is just astral.

@rudyprotrudy08: The instrumental in the beginning and the instrumental part starting at 4:20, makes me feel to slow-dance, holding someone close to me... Eyes closed, intense, in a large room, lit by candles, looking out to the sea. Playing this over and over again... Want to hold me and slow dance with me?

@tadtravis: Compliments! You couldn't have said it better! Maybe someone can make a loop of the beginning and end instrumental part? Maybe for an hour long, over and over... Scritti Politti still is quality and will never sound like some awkward 80's band. Hearing their songs again, brings back such great memories, when I was 20 years young. Happyness, romance, freedom and all their songs playing in my car, while cruising in the USA.. Ah, bring back the 80's!

Always wondered: is this song about George Michael?
