Subject: Who is the artist of the song "Imagination"

Written By: demag on 10/19/04 at 1:55 pm

Hi everybody,

I'm searching for the artist of a song called "Imagination", of the mid 80s. It sounds like P.I.L., but it's not (as far as I know).
Can you help????

Thanks, Michael

Thanks, but it's not!

The song is of a male artist (sounds like Public Image Limited)!

Could be Belouis Some's one from 1985 whose lyrics go like this:


She lit a cigarette, both hands behind her back
Thought she was hungry, lack of choice saw to that
Only you can try to see what I'm really like
She said, only you can understand the way I feel toni-ight
She blamed excesses on the 'merican dream
So seldom witnessed, never-er seen
Hah - hah - hah - hah - hah...

Imagination - could make a man of you
Imagination - could make me love you too
Imagination - is all I want from you-ou

She lost her virtue before she could write
I lost mine too, on my very first night with you-ou
You'll have to guide me, these impossible schemes
You make me steal unstealable things
She blamed excesses on the 'merican dream
So seldom witnessed, never-er seen
Hah - hah - hah - hah - hah...

Imagination - could make a man of you
Imagination - could make me love you too
Imagination - is all I want from you-ou

And - she blamed excesses on the 'merican dream
So seldom witnessed, never-er seen
Hah - hah - hah - hah - hah...

Imagination - could make a man of you
Imagination - could make me love you too
Imagination - is all I want from you-ou

Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination

Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination
Imagination


While the man looks like this:

The song reached #17 position in the UK singles charts having one of the most controversial accompanying videos of the decade.

Belious Some is correct but there is another song titled imagination that was "new wave"  I the band was called Telekin or Telkin.

It's rare I can't find it anywhere.

You mean Telekin, "Imagination", 1984?

You'd probably enjoy Symphony of Love's "Viva Italo Disco" website.  He wrote something about that track on Friday, 25 June 2010 that may be of interest. :)

Telekin?  Dude, I don't remember the last time I even saw one of those for sale.  Truth be known, I haven't been looking.
