Weak in the Presence of Beauty" is a song written by Michael Ward and Rob Clarke. It was first released by their band, the British group Floy Joy, in 1986. The song was later covered by singer Alison Moyet in 1987 and became a hit for her. Following their 1984 debut album Into the Hot, Floy Joy's lead vocalist Carroll Thompson left the group, along with Shaun Ward. However, Michael Ward decided to continue the group with the new lead vocalist Desi Campbell and keyboardist/bassist Rob Clarke.

It was released in 1986, and featured the minor hit, "Weak in the Presence of Beauty". Unlike the previous album which featured Carroll Thompson on vocals, this album instead featured vocals from Desi Campbell, whilst both original member Michael Ward and new member Robert E. Clarke performed and wrote the music. Friday Night" was also released as a single but was a commercial failure. The band split shortly after the album although in 1990, both Campbell and Shaun Ward would form the band Everyday People
