About When Will You (Make My Telephone Ring)

"When Will You (Make My Telephone Ring)" is a single released by the Scottish group Deacon Blue in 1987 and in 1988. The song features prominent backing vocals from members of R&B group Londonbeat. It was the very first song to be played on Radio Luxembourg after it went satellite at 3AM on 30 December 1991. The video for the song was directed by John Scarlett-Davis and produced by Nick Verden for Radar Films. In an interview given to the Daily Record in 2012, songwriter Ricky Ross explained that "It's so hard to remember. I think that song is actually about waiting to be discovered, spurred on by the unrequited love of an old girlfriend". more »
