"Alone Without You" was the opening shot from Bitter Sweet, the second album by the English band King, going out as its first single in 1985 on Columbia. It's new wave pop in its Sunday best, glossy and urgent and built for the radio, and it went to number eight on the UK chart that August, the second and last time King made the top ten. The video was shot in Greece.
The seven-inch backed it with "I Kissed the Spikey Fridge" in a "rock hard mix", while the 12-inch stretched the A-side out into the Scorcher mix and put a USA summer mix of "Love & Pride" on the flip.
