Amen.It saddens me that most people have no clue who Talk Talk is. But it makes me so happy to know that just about everyone I've ever met that HAS heard them, completely worships them.

A song ahead of its time, strange but great

Thank you for your nice words. And for showing me how melancholic is spelled :-)

I'm glad I'm not the only one.I used to jokingly refer to this album as 'music to slit your wrists to' (I never did). But when I was down I would often put this album on.Its as though you were in the company of an empathic friend who new what you were going through. Maybe thats what all melancholic music does and why people play it, though this work is in a league of its own.

Always reminds me of Islands by King Crimson

I don't think that I have ever listened to a more melankolic record than TT's Spirit Of Eden. I had just finished High School and started in the army when the LP was released in the autumn of 1988. It was a good record to listen to when you felt sorry for yourself :-) Today it's just one of the best records in my collection.

Truly extraordinary . . . A wonderful track. By an equally wonderful band!

Colour of Spring is such a masterpiece - then you listen to this song and it sounds so far removed, so worlds apart from that album it could be another band! Yet it's the same band, just 2 years later. Extraordinary.Put Colour of Spring & Spirit of Eden side by side... 2 of the most inconceivably evocative albums in history. These 2 alone demonstrate the incomparable brilliance of this band. And when you factor in the rest of their work... Without peer, they're just... without peer.
