  • Tears On the Ballroom Floor was one of a number of songs that Ant co-wrote with Roy Hill in the mid-eighties. Another song that they co-wrote called Distant Heart was due to be recorded by Roger Daltrey but the recording of the album that it was potentially to be included on was cancelled.


    Incidentally, keen-eyed viewers of the Cry No More video for the song may spot Nick Magnus on keyboards.

  • Thanks for the extra info Sir Ralph and Jonathan.


    Who knows, the track could have been Ant's 'In The Air Tonight' with mega worldwide success!


    What an untapped plethora of talent the members of Genesis past and present possess!
