Today, October 20, 2021, we celebrate Mark King’s 63rd birthday!
Also Level 42 have announced a tour of the Netherlands in November 2021. They will play a.o. De Melkweg Amsterdam and Tivoli Utrecht.
Today it will also be the YouTube premiere of Level 42’s single ’Children Say’.
That is why we highlight this great song ’It’s over’ from 1987.
’It’s Over’ is the 4th single of British band Level 42 of their 7th studio album ’Running in the Family’. It became a hit in England (#10), in the Netherlands (#7) and Belgium (#12).
’It’s Over’ is about a lover leaving and not coming back. The single was recorded at the time both brothers Boon and Phil Gould had decided to leave the band. Level 42 was at this time Mark King (bass/vocals) and Mike Lindup (keyboards). In this video Neil Conti (from Prefab Sprout) is replacing Phil Gould on drums and Paul Gendler plays guitar replacing Boon Gould.
