If my memory serves me well the year was 1983 and this was a one hit wonder for a Liverpool band I knew nothing about other than the singer seemed very cool on Top of The Pops!
There was a video of them performing this on Top of The Pops which I can't find now, but if you track it down have a look at the guitarist and co-writer of song, its a very song Ian Broudie who would go on to major success with The Lightening Seeds.
Who will buy my flaming sword
Will wield it strong and broad
For loved ones are in our care
A drift in a world unfair
Who will buy my flaming sword
Will wield it strong and broad
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Who will take this burning rose
A symbol a spear of gold
And steadfast against the hours
Untouched by unearthly powers
Who will take this burning rose
A symbol a spear of gold
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Who will buy my flaming sword
Who will buy my flaming sword
Who will buy my flaming sword
My flaming sword...
Will wield it strong and broad
For loved ones are in our care
A drift in a world unfair
Who will buy my flaming sword
Will wield it strong and broad
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Who will take this burning rose
A symbol a spear of gold
And steadfast against the hours
Untouched by unearthly powers
Who will take this burning rose
A symbol a spear of gold
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Cold is cold but all the pleasure's mine
A night of love
And I will drink the wine
Who will buy my flaming sword
Who will buy my flaming sword
Who will buy my flaming sword
My flaming sword...
