The Human League - Don't You Want Me mp3 flac download
Don't You Want Me" is a single by British synthpop group The Human League, released on 27 November 1981 as the fourth single from their third studio album Dare (1981). It is the band's best known and most commercially successful recording and was the 1981 Christmas number one in the UK, where it has since sold over 1,560,000 copies, making it the 23rd most successful single in UK Singles Chart history. It later topped the Billboard Hot 100 in the US on 3 July 1982 where it stayed for three weeks.
Virgin’s chief executive Simon Draper forced the band to release the song as a fourth single, despite Oakey’s objections. Oakey was convinced the public were now sick of hearing the Human League and he thought of the track as a poor quality filler track. As such, he became vocally against having it be released as a single and made the decision to stick it to the end of the album

The Human League was formed in 1978 by Philip Oakey, Adrian Wright, Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh. Wright - a non-musician - was in charge of the visuals, and created elaborate slide shows that were projected on stage during their songs. In 1980, Ware and Marsh left to form Heaven 17, leaving Oakey and Wright in charge of the group. The female backup singer/dancers Susan Ann Sulley and Joanne Catherall were added that year, and various musicians were hired to work on the Dare album. The Dare! album was recorded without traditional instruments. The union feared that musicians were being put out of work. The proposed ban was defeated.

In the early 1980s, Sheffield electro-pop pioneers, the Human League, transformed themselves from an indie synth band into a mainstream chart act with huge UK hits such as ‘Love Action,’ ‘Don’t You Want Me,’ and ‘Mirror Ma. This new 19-track collection features some of the group’s biggest hits alongside key early tracks, ace album cuts and collectable B-sides. Everything is taken from the remastered releases, so we have the true mono "Being Boiled (Fast Version)", and Martin Rushent produced "I Love You Too Much"
