Original official music video of Talk Talk performing their hit "Talk Talk" from the 1982 album "The Party's Over". There were two versions of the video, this version is considered "Version 2".

From Wikipedia: "It was the second single from their debut album, The Party's Over (1982), it topped at no. 52 in the United Kingdom upon initial release. A remix of the song was released later in the same year where it peaked at no. 23 in the UK and number 75 in the United States. The single also reached no. 1 in South Africa in 1983. Influential modern rock radio station KROQ-FM in Los Angeles included this song in its regular rotation of current releases from July–August 1982."

Many are familiar with Talk Talk's follow-up 80's anthem "It's My Life" and while this earlier effort is edgier and a bit darker, it received regular rotation on MTV. Like many bands of the New Wave era Talk Talk was influenced by Roxy Music, David Bowie, Ultravox, and even Kraftwerk. The band was a part of the "Second British Invasion" which included such New Wave and New Romantic artists as Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet. "Talk Talk" is often featured in the video game Grand Theft Auto GTA: Vice City.

My apologies - I had to tilt the video to unblock in the US.

Enjoy!

Lyrics - Songwriters: Mark David Hollis, Edwin James Hollis

What did I tell you before when I was up?

Anxiety was bringing me down

I'm tired of listening to you, talking in rhymes

Twisting round to make me think

You're straight down the line

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

All you do to me is talk talk

If every sign that I see is complete

Then I'm a fool in your game

And all you want to do is tell me your lies

Won't show the other side

You're just wasting my time

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

All you do to me is talk talk

When every choice that I make is yours

Keep telling me what's right and what's wrong

Don't you ever stop to think about me

I'm not that blind to see

That you've been cheating on me

And hear you laugh at me when I'm up

I see you when you were crying for me when I'm down

I see you when you laugh at me when I'm up

I see you when you were crying for me

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

All you do to me is talk talk

Talk, talk, talk, talk

Weird Al should do a spoof of this called 'Suck Suck' as a guy who's had enough of his girlfriend's b.j's... (I know, not likely, but it'd make for a funny song & video)...
