Biografia:
Banda inglesa de post-punk com uma queda acentuada pro pop de qualidade. Um Public Image Ltd. mais alegre ou um Talking Heads mais carrancudo.
Eles abriram mão de tocar ao vivo em 1982, e a cada disco de estúdio ficam mais sofisticados. Depois do sucesso com Drums and Wires, escorado no hit "Making Plans for Nigel", a banda voltou ao estúdio com dois nomes que ainda fariam sucesso nos anos 80, Steve Lillywhite e Hugh Padgham, que viriam depois a trabalhar com U2, Simple Minds, Police e Paul McCartney.

Dear God
---- ---
[Verse 1:]
Dear God, hope you got the letter and...
I pray you can make it better down here
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image
See them starving on their feet
'Cause they don't get enough to eat
>From God,
I can't believe in you
[Verse 2:]
Dear God, sorry to disturb you but...
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image
See them fighting in the street
'Cause they can't make opinions meet
About God,
C D
I can't believe in you
[Bridge:]
Fmaj7 C G C
Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Fmaj7 D2 (or A7sus4/D)
Did you make mankind after we made you?
A/C# C C/E E7
Am riff
And the devil, too?
C D (2nd time thru)
bypass Am thing and go to C riff
[Verse 3:]
Dear God, don't know if you've noticed but...
Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
And us crazy humans wrote it you should take a look
And all the people that you made in your image
Still believing that junk is true
Well I know it ain't, and so do you, dear God
I can't believe in
I don't believe in
[Verse 4:]
Am/F#
I won't believe in heaven and hell
Bb
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
Dm
No pearly gates, no thorny crown
Bb
You're always letting us humans down
G
The wars you bring, the babes you drown
Bb
Those lost at sea and never found
Dm
And it's the same the whole world 'round
Bb
The hurt I see helps to compound
G
That Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Bb
Is just somebody's unholy hoax
Dm
And if you're up there you'd perceive
Bb
That my heart's here upon my sleeve
G A
If there's one thing I don't believe in
D2/ D Bb C F G E <- D2 form, use these bass notes
