Ultravox - Vienna (Lyrics)

[flannerymonaghan-morris]

Midge has the voice of an Angel.

The start of this song never fails to give me goosebumps.

[anjajensen]

I was about 12 when this came out...still great 45 years later...😎

[thismyytbhandle]

The sentiment of this song is so true. If it is not love, whatever it is, in the long run, it does not matter.

[v-town]

Saw Midge perform this live about 15 years ago. Damn! He was no kid, but hit those big notes...the crowd was floored.

[jimboBFC]

Those vocals are at operatic level. Beautiful.

[pattiraney]

Heard it in yellowjackets but ran to YouTube immediately. First time I heard this song I fell in love but it was opera singer Russell Watson who had me in love with it

[MidgetBuddie]

I remember seeing this performed on TOTP, a lady was doing ballet, the first time I ever saw someone dance ballet.. it inspired me to dance. Plus this song is just amazing, the piano, the build up, everything

[malinchoneska]

I've never heard this before.
It reminds me of a sunset I saw above the clouds, when flying to Seattle.

[jediwitch]

Oh Vienna, how I love you in wintertime, so beautiful, oh! How I miss you.

[richardignatowicz]

Love the violin, what a incredible talent whoever played the violin, amazing!

[jediwitch]

Oh! #Vienna! Back in the Cold War, Vienna was like a kinda neutral ground for spies of all Ideologies, & countries. The late 80s was like the Wild West, what amazing time to be alive, simultaneously exhilarating & terrifying!❤

[bigguyss]

Classic! Shame this wasn’t a hit here in the States.

[magnumpi]

Try listening to this great song after a joint with quality headphones. You won't be disappointed😉👌

[yhereynowyme]

Never heard of this song until I started reading the book, The Shards. That brought me here for a listen.

[TomKeresey]

Whenever I hear this song now, I think of Lee Mack making his baby daughter cry.
For context, this was revealed on Would I Lie To You.

[Dominic-Gecko]

Masterpiece of a song! About the best city in the world!

[kalliste]

Vienna is a very significant place... some very famous people lived there all at the same time just before WW1.

[rogerhajj]

What a masterpiece...as if I am listening to it the first time

[ngangas]

Nice ty ☺️ the lyrics is haunting thought it's was just me

[jamescollings]

I used to love pissing my work colleagues off in the office tapping the keyboard to the beat of this song. Good annoying memories. 😆
