Thompson Twins – Lies (1982)
Directed by: Maurice Phillips
Released on October 8, 1982, “Lies” is a standout track by the British pop band Thompson Twins from their third studio album, *Quick Step & Side Kick*. The song blends new wave and synth-pop elements, achieving notable chart success by reaching number 30 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 67 on the UK Singles Chart. The accompanying music video, directed by Maurice Phillips, features the band members in a surreal hospital setting, with three pairs of feet protruding from an oversized bed, bouncing to the rhythm, and various whimsical objects appearing and disappearing, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.
