70年代末期龐克風潮方興未艾,但是電子合成音樂卻已悄悄燃起火燄,開始向全球猛烈綻放熱力。雖然The Human League一出道即獲得各界好評,卻發生創始成員Martyn Ware、Ian Craig Marsh脫團另起爐灶Heaven 17團隊的窘境。主唱Philip Oakey則邀請兩名才貌兼具的女生Susan Ann Sulley、Joanne Catherall加入樂團,以兩女一男的方式重新定義The Human League。1981年憑藉著專輯『Dare』震撼全球,將英倫電子音樂成功打入流行市場。
從The Human League雙碟精選輯【Gold】的40首代表曲目當中,一窺80年代最潮的New Wave/Synthpop派系風格:榮登英國1981年聖誕節時的冠軍大作“Don't You Want Me”,驚人創下150萬張銷量,入籍英國史上最成功單曲第24名,美國則穩坐3週冠軍,一枚金唱片入袋;80年代愛情經典電影「神通情人夢」主題曲“Together In Electric Dreams”;電影「特勤沙龍」重點襯曲,登記英、美排行榜TOP 10的“(Keep Feeling) Fascination”;US百萬銷售冠軍情歌“Human”…等必聽經典。
