Midge Ure – No Regrets (UK 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1982

“No Regrets” is a song originally recorded by Tom Rush in 1968. Numerous cover versions have been recorded including Shirley Bassey and Olivia Newton-John.

In May 1982, Scottish musician Midge Ure released a cover of the song as his debut solo single. “No Regrets” was also produced by Ure, who said “I got tired of doing it for others, so I decided to do it for myself” and was co-produced and engineered by John Hudson.

Reviewing for Record Mirror, Simon Tebbutt described the song as “a brilliant mixture of the big emotional American ballad … with the kind of clean-cut and almost cold European precision we’ve come to associate with Mr. Ure.”
