Album: Through The Barricades (1986). Charted: 6. Get the Sheet Music License This Song. songfacts ®. Artistfacts ®. Lyrics. This is a Romeo & Juliet-style love story set in a troubled Northern Ireland. I was living in Ireland about a year later, and 'Through The Barricades' came to me in one evening. About two in the morning, lyrics started appearing in my head and I picked up a guitar - this has never happened to me before. I felt the song was leading me itself. It's a song not specifically about what happened to Reilly, it's a love song, which is what I know best. It's a Romeo & Juliet song - two people trying to have a relationship that wasn't really allowed. The band had an acrimonious split in 1990, but reunited in 2009

By the time Spandau Ballet's fifth album appeared in 1986, the sun had set on the synth poppers of the second British Invasion and guitars were all the rage once again. Never ones to miss a trend, the former new romantics - who'd signed with a new label, Epic, and were determined to make a big splash stateside - declared their admiration for bands like Bon Jovi and made an album that likely surprised their diminishing fan base with its AOR aspirations.
