I remember perfectly the first moment when I've listened to this synth-song. I've got the album "Fused" which includes this track....great!!! ^^

Yeah, first found out about this band (thank you WFDU) with Lose Him, so freakin' haunting yet catchy, kept playing it while driving on dark roads out in the country (as country as NJ USA gets :). Thanks to komputermusik for posting. (and I wont bother telling you all that I was younger then or how old I actually was LOL)

I love the flashes of Kraftwerk's Radio-Activity album when he says "You can steal my records."

My Dad loved (should I say still loves) this band. Has both "My Translucent Hands" and "Fused" CD's way back in the 80's and listened to them endlessly. He say's it brings back tons and tons of great memories of his time when living in Leeds as a student. Whatever happened to these guys?

Quite possibly the most well put together Video I have ever seen. I've watched it more times than I can remember

I bought my first I Start Counting CD because they were next in the rack to Information Society - the reason I'd gone to the record shop. The cover looked interesting, they were on Mute (always a good sign) and I took it home and fell in love.

I first heard I Start Counting on WRAS 88.5 in Atlanta back in 1985 or 86 on a show called Pure Mania. They played y Translucent Hand" all the tome!! And then I never heard them again until I picked up Mute Tonal Evidence! What a great track to listen to while driving through the streets at night!

These guys are the absolute innovators of sampling, a technique widely used by so many of the so-called recording artists today. It is unfortunate that none of them ever give proper credit to I Start Counting for it.

Great production on the Synclavier with the choir sounds in the background. Wonder if that was the one that Daniel Miller owned. Sad song, guy sounded lonely. Song is seems to be about just seeing someone and wondering what it would be like to have a family with that person..odd, how we are all connected in that way....and do strange things like that, secretly

"You could steal my records..." *picture of Radioactivity album by Kraftwerk!* <3

You reminded me of a moving quote from Charles Dickens' novel A Tale of Two Cities: "A WONDERFUL FACT TO REFLECT UPON, that very human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there, is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!"

For you crate diggers and/or synthpop fans.. this album is one of Mute's classics. Easy.

@gmansi Yes, the label owner of Mute Records and the guy behind the Normal and Silicon Teens. He also produced most of depeche Modes early stuff and also, most of what I start Counting put out...the sampling used on most of I start Countings records was done at a time when sampling was highly expensive and reserved for the pros..Daniel Miller was one of them and one can only infer that these two working class London blokes used Daniel Millers gear while in the studio

Komputermusik - What films dialogue is in the break in this track ? (I been trying to figure it out for years !)

Is that completely right? ISC's first single came out in the same year as DM's Some Great Reward and that features significant amounts of sampling. Trevor Horn talked of sampling a tennis match and using one of the samples he'd captured as the snare sound in ABC's Look of Love and that was released in 1981. YMO's Technodelic was also released in 1981 and was largely an album made of samples. ISC are fantastic but I'm not sure I'd agree that they were the 'absolute innovators' of sampling.
