The Passions were a British post-punk/new wave band which formed in 1978 and disbanded in 1983. The Passions' music was grounded mainly in Barbara Gogan's voice and Clive Timperley's delicate Echoplex guitar work. They were considered one of the one-hit wonders due to their early 1981 single "I'm in Love with a German Film Star".
The Passions supported labelmates The Cure on tour in 1980. This is their one and only Dutch tv performance, recorded and broadcast on the TROS tv program TROS TOP 50, episode 84 on September 11, 1980.
