ZTT: Who Bridges the Gap Between the Record Executive and The Genius? Me
Paul Morley, New Musical Express, 18 February 1984
PAUL MORLEY, the man who took FRANKIE GOES TO HOLLYWOOD to Number One, takes a long day's journey into night where he wonders whether he has done the right thing.

Is it possible to play the system against itself and come out winning? Yes and no.
