ABC - Poison Arrow

'Poison Arrow' is a New Wave single released and popularised by ABC in 1982 and also included on their 1982 debut album, The Lexicon of Love.

It reached number 6 on the UK singles chart, number 4 in Australia and also was their first entry on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, at number 25. Karen Clayton provides the backing vocals.

The single was released in the UK on 7" and 12", with the same mix appearing on both formats; however a subsequent U.S. 12" remix (also known as the "Jazz Remix") appears on several ABC compilations and as a bonus track on reissues of The Lexicon of Love.

An alternate version of this song, entitled Theme From Mantrap, was released as the B-side of Poison Arrow in the UK and The Look of Love in the US. Their UK hit, Tears Are Not Enough, was the US B-side of Poison Arrow.
