Book Of Love – Boy (US 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1985

NEW 2021 Transfer!
NEW Meticulous Restoration!

Originally posted November 19, 2015

“Boy” is the title of the 1985 debut single by the American synthpop band Book of Love. The song was included on the band’s eponymous debut album Book of Love in 1986.

Although the song failed to reach the Billboard Hot 100 chart, it did make the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, where it peaked at no. 7 in April 1985.

“Boy” was written by band member Theodore (“Ted”) Ottaviano and features a prominent tubular bells melody. The band secured a recording contract when the demo of the song was given to DJ/producer Ivan Ivan, who then passed it along to Seymour Stein of Sire Records.

The song is said to describe the frustrations of a woman with an affection for “a boy who likes boys”, with songwriter Ted Ottaviano adding in a 2016 Village Voice interview that the song was “written about Boy Bar, which was a very exclusive gay club in the East Village.”
