Blind Items Revealed #1 - Reader Blind - Kindness
November 2, 2019
These three vocalists from the same foreign country are in three different bands and are friends. All three are tall, handsome, and well-dressed and associated with a certain movement in music. Their heyday was several decades ago but they are still active now.
Vocalist #1 was in one of the biggest bands if not the biggest band for a time in the world. This was largely due to their second album named after a city and the rise of this TV channel that showed something related to music.
Vocalist #2 was also in a popular band that had one monster hit globally and a number of other popular songs. They were also helped by this TV channel. At one point, he sued someone else in his band in court but lost. He is not currently active with the band that made him famous.
Vocalist #3 is slightly younger than the other two but of the same generation. He is currently the only original member in the group he is part of. Their most recent release was a sequel to their first record which had several big hits on it.
#2 and #3 have worked together musically on occasion.
During the decade they were most popular in, #1 and #2 took part in this famous charity recording and event. Later they along with #3 played a music festival in this country which has taken in a lot of refugees. While there, they attended a refugee charitable event and ended up giving away part of their fee for the festival to a program for refugees and since then have met up occasionally over the years behind the scenes to do charity work with UNHCR and other refugee groups. This has become a family event as well as they often bring along their partners and children too.
Due to the current political climate in that country, the three singers have stepped up their efforts and are organizing a big show for next year.
Vocalist #1 – Simon Le Bon-Duran Duran, Vocalist #2- Tony Hadley – Spandau Ballet, Vocalist #3 – Martin Frye-ABC (MTV –channel) Italy –country

wtf I slept through New Year's Eve??? Anyway good for these guys, ABC was an underrated band True by Spandau was huge but they also had other songs still played today
I'm a huge ABC fan, so this made me happy.
80's music video trivia - what's the connection of Lisa Vanderpump to one of these band?
***raises hand*** she dated Martin Frye who put her in their movie??
Awwwwww, I love the kindness blinds.
Nice, Sandybrook - she's the leading lady in ABC's "Poison Arrow" video.
All three are legends and great people. If US readers don't know Martin Fry then I suggest downloading 'The labour of love'. Produced by the legendary Trevor Horn and considered one the best 80's pop albums from Britain that decade. All three made GREAT art.
Simon LeBon was one of the rudest people I've ever encountered, but it's nice that he can do some good things.
Nick Rhodes, otoh, seems to be a very nice guy.
It is nice to read a blind where the musicians are helping people instead of raping them.
Isnt Labour of Love UB40?
He meant Lexicon of Love I think gauloise
They uh didn't get too creative on the names.

There was also "The Lexicon of Love II", @Brayson87
Oh my god Tony????❤️ I wanted to marry him !! No wonder I love him so .🥰
One of the interesting things about this blind is that Hadley (Spandau's lead singer) is a noted conservative, was a big backer of Thatcher (if you recall, most of the Brit new wave stars were adamantly anti-Thatcher), and was going to run for Parliament as a Tory.
Love them all!
As a Duranie I ve always heard about Simon s charity work, also about Tony and Martin, watch BANDS REUNITED: KAJAGOOGOO then watch ABC and you ll get a surprise ... some of these gentleman are EXTREMELY GENEROUS. at least with those who need it, cause Simon uses to tend to be a DIVA with his fans . TELLING FROM EXPERIENCE OF HIS PRESENCE IN ARGENTINA
I love this story. I have met Simon, and he can be rude to fans but Duran Duran does a lot of charity work. I wonder if they will get other musicians involved because I believe Bono is also active with this and I believe a friend of some or all of them.
