Talk Talk Talk

The Furs found success in the US with their next release, 1981’s Talk Talk Talk , which saw the band making its debut on the US Billboard 200 chart . In the UK, the album yielded two charting singles , ” Dumb Waiters ” and the original version of ” Pretty in Pink “. The latter song served as inspiration for the 1986 John Hughes film Pretty in Pink and was re-recorded for the platinum-selling Pretty in Pink soundtrack – though Richard Butler was later adamant that the cinematic interpretation had very little to do with the song’s original intent.
