The song was a synth-pop masterpiece, and took its time to get there.\u00a0 Producer Trevor Horn worked through several versions of the song and a changing lineup of musicians to get the desired sound for the \u201cRelax\u201d &#8211; a song which would be used to launch his new record label, ZTT, to the public.\u00a0 Despite a slow start and censorship by the BBC, \u201cRelax\u201d became one of the decade&#8217;s most important and superbly produced records.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frankie Goes to Hollywood were formed in Liverpool in 1980. Singer Holly Johnson recalled writing the song while walking down the street: \u201cRelax was written in my head, and I sang it out loud to myself walking down the middle of Princes Avenue in Liverpool, laughing as I went.\u201d The song is credited to Holly Johnson, Mark O\u2019Toole, and Peter Gill<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The band was signed to ZTT Records by Trevor Horn after the producer saw the band playing an early version of \u201cRelax\u201d on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Tube. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Horn focused his attention on \u201cRelax\u201d from the outset. They first worked on the song at Manor Studio.\u00a0 Johnson recalled: \u201cTrevor discovered that the band really couldn\u2019t play along with the machine sequences he\u2019d devised. We were great live, but very raw, so Trevor wanted professional musicians who could play to a metronomic beat.\u201d\u00a0 The only sound from these early sessions that was kept was the sound of the band jumping into the swimming pool that was sampled into the Fairlight. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At one point in the process, Horn brought in Ian Dury\u2019s backing band, The Blockheads, to record the song, but even those sessions were eventually replaced. Finally. Horn recruited keyboardist Andy Richards, as well as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/J._J._Jeczalik\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">J. J. Jeczalik<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to program the electronic sounds. He also discovered, by chance, that engineer Stephen Lipson was the perfect guitarist for the project. Horn explained:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201c\u2026one Wednesday, I heard someone in the studio playing exactly the guitar part I wanted. I thought it was the Frankies\u2019 guitarist Nasher, and I rushed in, but the band were all up in Liverpool. It turned out to be our engineer, Steve Lipson. He\u2019d caught the spirit of what Nasher was doing and transformed it.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final version came together through this final group.\u00a0 Horn told the Guardian. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOn the final single version, I was recording with three brilliant people: Steve Lipson, Andy Richards and JJ Jeczalik. We were all frustrated because it felt like we were going nowhere. I admitted defeat. Sometimes when you do that and give it one more go, you get lucky. All the work we had put into these different versions suddenly coalesced.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRelax\u201d was released in November of 1983 to a slow start\u2026.It first charted in the UK at spot number 67 and rose to number 37 after an appearance on Top of the Pops on\u00a0 January 5, 1984.\u00a0 The song was on its way to Number 6 on the charts, when Radio 1 DJ Mike Read announced that he would no longer be playing the song, because of its sexual meaning. The BBC soon followed with their own ban just as the song hit number 1.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ban may have stirred additional awareness of the song, but its consequences were also a disappointment for a group of young musicians finally achieving their dream. Johnson told the Guardian in 2021:\u201cWe had already performed it on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QnPW5hxEb8A\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Tube<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0HkNM7cwfJ0\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Top of the Pops\u2019 20th anniversary show<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which catapulted the single up the charts, but were unable to play Top of the Pops when Relax reached its peak position. This was a disappointment as it was every young kid\u2019s dream to appear on that show with a No 1.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The song remained in the number one spot for 5 weeks, in spite of the BBC\u2019s ban &#8211; which was eventually dropped late in 1984, allowing the band to perform the song at Christmas edition of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Top of the Pops. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite its slow start and the opposition it faced, \u201cRelax\u201d remains fresh and exciting to this day.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/pQIlQhhAUs4\"><strong>Watch the full video on Relax with Warren and Stephen Lipson<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy55b3V0dWJlLmNvbSUyRmVtYmVkJTJGcFFJbFFoaEFVczQlMjIlMjB0aXRsZSUzRCUyMllvdVR1YmUlMjB2aWRlbyUyMHBsYXllciUyMiUyMGZyYW1lYm9yZGVyJTNEJTIyMCUyMiUyMGFsbG93JTNEJTIyYWNjZWxlcm9tZXRlciUzQiUyMGF1dG9wbGF5JTNCJTIwY2xpcGJvYXJkLXdyaXRlJTNCJTIwZW5jcnlwdGVkLW1lZGlhJTNCJTIwZ3lyb3Njb3BlJTNCJTIwcGljdHVyZS1pbi1waWN0dXJlJTIyJTIwYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Written by Caitlin Vaughn Carlos\u00a0 In 1984, Frankie Goes to Hollywood\u2019s debut single was dominating the charts, while simultaneously banned from the airwaves by the BBC.
