Visage/Ultravox Connection
by Sean » Wed Aug 10, 2005 4:40 am
I know that Midge Ure and Billy Currie were heavily involved in the song writing for the early Visage stuff but did Midge Ure sing in some of these songs? Some Visage songs are very clear cut Steve Strange but others I wonder if they were sung by Midge Ure. One song that comes to mind is "In The Year 2525". If you listen to that and have never heard of the name Visage, you would probably guess that it was Midge Ure singing an Ultravox song. Any comments?

As far as I know, Steve Strange was lead vocalist on all Visage songs. Midge Ure just contributed background vocals (and guitar, bass guitar & keyboards) on the first two albums.
In fact, technically the cover of Zager & Evans' "In The Year 2525" was not even Visage, but the Steve Strange Project.
