Easily one of the `80s` finest albums, THE LEXICON OF LOVE not only established singer Martin Fry and guitarist Mark White as two of the decade`s smartest and most skillful cross-breeders of Motownish dance grooves, Beatlesque pop and Roxy Music-style art-rock urgency, it cemented ex-Buggle Trevor Horn`s status as the era`s defining producer.
Throughout THE LEXICON OF LOVE, Horn`s over-the-top blend of strings, horns, lush choirs and bizarre production tricks battles Fry`s literate, witty lyrics and commanding voice and White`s encyclopedic knowledge of pop hooks for the listener`s attention. While the singles "Poison Arrow" and "The Look of Love"--aided by stylish, funny videos--garnered the most interest, there`s not a single less-than-brilliant track, from the compelling opener "Show Me" to the near-desperate closer "4 Ever 2 Gether" and the lovely orchestral coda "The Look of Love (Part Four)." THE LEXICON OF LOVE is a classic.
