Seona Dancing (/ˈʃɔːnə/, SHAW-nə) were a 1980s British new wave group, best known for providing comedian Ricky Gervais with his first experiences as a public performer. Although the band experienced little chart success, their single “More to Lose“ went on to become a teen anthem in the Philippines.
Popularity in the Philippines
In 1985, DWRT-FM (then known as 99.5 RT, now 99.5 Play FM), a radio station in Metro Manila, Philippines, started playing a song billed as “Fade“ by Medium (also billed as “Medium“ by Fade). DWRT-FM deliberately misnamed the artist and song title to prevent anyone from finding the record and playing it themselves. Additionally, to stop other radio stations from recording it and playing it, DWRT-FM inserted a station ID midway through the track. A year later, another radio station, DWXB-102, revealed the true identity of the song as “More to Lose“ by Seona Dancing.
The song, which utilises an opening piano riff to convey the sound of falling teardrops, became a major radio and club hit as well as a favourite at high-school dances during the 1980s and beyond. AllMusic critic Michael Sutton wrote that the track was “the theme song of angst-ridden New Wave youths in the Philippines“ and “an ’80s anthem as ubiquitous as Peter Gabriel’s ’In Your Eyes’, but with the eternal hipster cool of Joy Division’s ’Love Will Tear Us Apart’.“

“More To Lose“ is a single by British new wave group Seona Dancing, released in 1983. It is an uptempo new wave pop song, sung by a then-unknown Ricky Gervais, who was the lyricist and vocalist of the band. Macrae was the band’s composer and keyboard player. The song remains virtually unknown in their homeland of the UK, after only peaking at No. 117 on the UK Singles Chart, but found tremendous success in the Philippines in 1985, a year after the band broke up.
