Metamatic Forums John Foxx John Foxx Cross Fade

One of my favourite rarely spoken of JF Ultravox's tracks is Cross Fade.

What does everyone else think of it.

You can listen to it here:

Yes one of my favorites off SOR too Furn. Thanks for that.
Am I right in saying it was written entirely by JF? (no SOR CD on hand)

It's definitely in the top ten...

No, I don't think so. I have no CD to hand either but I'm fairly sure that e.g. Dislocation has BC as a co-writer.

JF did once say that despite the co-writing credits, he basically came up with every song that Ultravox ever did.

That's interesting. Only 'Maximum Acceleration' is by JF alone.

Ok, must have dreamt that up... nice comment by JF tho!

Right . .that's the one I was thinking of ....I think...

I wouldn't necessarily go by Wikipedia though...

I recall noticing that each time an album is released, the writing credits may be different.

And they could be different again if you play through itunes...

Im going to be uncharter....uncarict.....uncharicteristoc.......im going to be not like my usual self here and say that i dont like 'Cross Fade' much. I do see it as a good indication though, of how the next album may have been.

Great song - love it.
