5 stars Stunning Eighties Masterpiece
The Lexicon of Love ranks as one of the best albums of the decade. Emotional, playful, sweeping and fun, it's an example of why people have fond memories of the time. "The Look of Love", "Poison Arrow", "Tears are Not Enough", "All of My Heart" and "Show Me" make it seem like a greatest hits collection rather than a debut. Fry and company never equalled these heights again and that's nothing to be ashamed of.

3 stars "Witty Lyrics"? Not really - great pop? YES YES YES
Now come on, Fry is no Shakespeare! SOme of the lyrics would embarrass the word "cliche" itslef...but this album is for fun not education! And as such it succeeds brilliantly. No one with a soul can have lived hrough the eighties and NOT tapped their foot to at least ONE track on this album, and several if they have real heart. Pop would be the poorer without it. Its quintessential pop: catchy, yet well-orchestrated, danceably predictable yet full of quirks and surprises. Yes the videos were art-house pomposity (an old mate of mine was in the video for "All of my heart" and even HE didnt know what the hell it was about!) but the music is whats its all about, and this album is all about music. One of my top ten of all time, and I inlcude Bowie / Roxy Music, Pink Flord in that list. A classic that any true music lover MUST have in his collection to deserve that title. The look of Love? maybe not...the sound of Class? definitely.

5 stars Trevor Horn Produced!!
That right there says it all.what an incredible marriage of the fine pop production of HORN and the style of the songwriting and you have a unique and masterful concept album.The album rolls along steadily until All Of My Heart and even that has such a powerful punch that you wish the album would continue forever.Martin Fry once said that he wanted an album that was part Clash and part Chic. Well you get both.The lyrics are so intelligent and not mindless fluff and mesh so well with the stellar production that i wish they would have continued to use Trevor after this but it was not to be. He actually was on board to do the Beauty Stab album but had some other obligations to attend to. ABC did not want to do a Lexicon Of Love part 2 but it sure would have been nice.They continued to challenge themselves artistcally and go in different directions throughout their career but at least for this one shining moment they give us their best work.ABC+TREVOR HORN=SMASH

3 stars I'm not a big fan but ABC made pretty good blend of pop synt
They had a lil bubble gum pop appeal. they came out at a very good time in the early 80's. Making such pretty bad music videos. such as the "look of love". I still don't understand that video. Esp, with that old man gluttenizing himself on posta and later finds a lamp cord plug in his food. ANd I still wonder what the hell does that ought to do with the song title itself "look of LOve"?? Hmmm, nope. BUt 80 or 90% of the music videos for the most part has nothing to do with the song at all. BUt anyways, regardless whatever, ABC continued on making pop hits, and their videos got a lil better, i guess. BUt as for the music. Eventho, it can sound a lil quirky at times. BUt however ABC's music ain't all that bad. They had catchy groove's and a unique blend of sax and synthiezers (if i spell that right?) ANd talk about romanance and love without being all whiny,sappy and sad about it. ANd as i remember growing up watching mtv, and seeing ABC on mtv. There were sometimes i wanted to kick the lead singers a$$. BUt anyways, i have my guilty pleasures!!
