10CC - The Things We Do For Love

Many thought it spelled the end for 10CC when Kevin Godley and Lol Creme left ship in 1976, but Graham Gouldman and Eric Stewart sure had some life left in them. Gouldman, in every way a professional songwriter with an impressive past, and Stewart, golden-voiced singer that he is, took 10CC to new heights with a new line-up and made the album Deceptive Bends (1977), which became their biggest success to date. "The Things We Do For Love" is my favourite song on the album, although follow-up single "Good Morning, Judge" was a slightly bigger hit - in the UK, that is. This is Pop music with a capital P.
