DESCRIPTION:
Perhaps on of my favourite songs from the 80's. It's one of those love songs that never seems to lose it's time.

"The Power of Love" is the third single from Frankie Goes to Hollywood, released in November 1984. It is taken from the album Welcome to the Pleasuredome. The track was first featured during the John Peel Sessions the band performed on during 1983, which was slower and emphasized the track's original camp ironic content (such as the Hooded Claw from the cartoon series, The Perils of Penelope Pitstop).

"The Power of Love" followed its two predecessors, "Relax" and "Two Tribes", to the top of the UK singles chart, scoring the band an early December number-one, being pipped at the post by Band Aid for Christmas chart topper.
