Godley & Creme - "Cry" - the coolest video from the 80s

 Hey Gang,

Big Q here with a video hit bonus.  How many remember the song "Cry" from Godley & Creme?

Godly & Creme are Kevin Godley and Lol Creme.  They directed video's for such acts as the Police, Wang Chung, and Duran Duran.




They were original members of the band 10cc.  They were considered the experimental half of the group, which can definitely be seen in their one U.S. hit "Cry".  The video used a technique called analogue cross fading.  At the time is was the most unique video on MTV.

Battered version of this song could have existed in 1985, not the original messed-up morphing video.
