 Review 








There are a number of reasons why we should celebrate The Human League. For starters, there&apos;s Phil Oakey&apos;s defiantly ridiculous hair style. There&apos;s his recruitment of two schoolgirls from the dance floor of a Sheffield disco into the band, like a Jackie photo story made flesh.There&apos;s also their indelible imprint on the landscape of early 80s British pop. Without the Human League there would be no Depeche Mode, no Yazoo, no Howard Jones...It&apos;s unsurprising that this latest compilation plays its trump card immediately with &apos;&apos;Don&apos;t You Want Me&apos;&apos;. As perfectly constructed as any pop can be, its shifts between major and minor perfectly reflect the emotional turmoil and yuppie angst of the lyric. It&apos;s almost matched by the other singles from the classic Dare album, such as &apos;&apos;Open Your Heart&apos;&apos; and &apos;&apos;The Sound of the Crowd&apos;&apos;; a perfect marriage of synthesised detachment and romantic yearning.How odd, then, to find a brace of early singles tucked away at the end of the CD. Pre-schoolgirls and discotheques, The Human League was as po-faced as any band could be. &apos;&apos;Being Boiled&apos;&apos; remains the greatest single inspired by the plight of silk worms ever released. &apos;&apos;Empire State Human&apos;&apos;, which finds Phil cleverly rhyming &apos;tall&apos; with &apos;wall&apos; ad nauseum, still sounds remarkably contemporary. Screamingly pretentious, of course, and all the better for it.Even after Martyn Ware and Ian Marsh departed to form Heaven 17, Phil&apos;s liking for doomy pronouncements still lurked beneath the pop veneer. Take 1984&apos;s &apos;&apos;The Lebanon&apos;&apos;. A misguided foray into middle-eastern politics, it may well be their lyrical nadir, their trademark synth-pop swamped in a hideous 80s production.Although 1986&apos;s &apos;&apos;Human&apos;&apos; momentarily revived their chart fortunes, they never equalled Dare. By the 90s, they had committed the cardinal sin of their futurist origins they sounded dated. Mid 90s singles such as &apos;&apos;Tell Me When&apos;&apos; were largely forgettable. Tellingly, 2001&apos;s &apos;&apos;All I Ever Wanted&apos;&apos; is redolent of their earlier, purely electro sound, and marks a return to form.Now largely confined to the tawdry spectacle of 80s revival tours, The League&apos;s best years may be behind them. However, as this compilation demonstrates, they were one of the great singles bands of their era, and proved enormously influential on subsequent electro-pop. And if they failed to equal the sublime pop rush of &apos;&apos;Dont You Want Me&apos;&apos;, they can always rest in the knowledge that few ever did. --Mick Fitzsimmons Find more music at the BBC  This link will take you off  in a new window
