As an 80's guy and growing up in the 1980's I liked ABC but was not a massive fan I did like their music all the same but never went out to buy any of the music. But back in 2016 I came across Martin Fry on YouTube singing "Flames Of Desire" and wow that changed my way of thinking about his music. Since then I bought both Lexicon CD's and I love them both and now it's like a jigsaw puzzle putting all my memories of the 1980's in to a picture of the time when music was at its best. New Romantics were the best years and ABC now has a place in my CD collection of some great bands of the 1980's. Yet when your younger some bands you heard off were like ABC ok but you weren't overly struck with them but when you get older their music ignights that flame of your youth and all the words from the songs have true meaning. But "Flames Of Desire" is my favourite track from all ABC's hits..... Then Poison Arrow... Read full review

An excellent sequel to the original Lexicon of Love album. It has similar qualities to the original and once again has a very sophisticated production and sound. Anyone who liked the first Lexicon of Love or indeed likes ABC would enjoy this follow up album. Highly recommend it!

If you liked the original you will like this also, Tracks 1,2,3,4, 7 and Viva Love (11) reprise stand out for me .There are a couple of tracks which I don't like but you would be hard pushed to like very track on a album. Having seen Martin Fry " live " and heard his vocal range and tone he is just as good as he was with the band in their 1980s heyday ......The orchestral arrangements by Ann Dudley are exceptional showing what a talent she has , the orchestra coupled with Martin's voice blend very well indeed . A CD certainly worth owning ,

Having seen them live in the 80's I bought the original album and that was superb. Having bought the second album the music is still great. It is well worth the value , it arrived on time and in strong packaging. In my view there is nothing wrong with this product whatsoever.

Martin Fry, Back at his best, tracks are all bang on & I wondered why it took so long for this to be released. You have to buy it & enjoy it.
