This town, is coming like a ghost town All the clubs have been closed down This place, is coming like a ghost town Bands won't play no more too much fighting on the dance floor Do you remember the good old days before the ghost town? We danced and sang, and the music played in a de boomtown This town, is coming like a ghost town Why must the youth fight against themselves? Government leaving the youth on the shelf This place, is coming like a ghost town No job to be found in this country Can't go on no more The people getting angry This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town

“Ghost Town” foi gravada no mesmo período em que as riadas aconteciam em cidades britânicas, tornando-se um hino instantâneo ao clima de tensão urbana.
O single passou três semanas na posição número um e permaneceu 11 semanas entre os top 40 do UK Singles Chart.
Foi a última faixa gravada pela formação original de sete membros antes de a banda se separar.
As três principais revistas de música do Reino Unido da época nomearam “Ghost Town” como “Single of the Year” em 1981.
A música foi a 12ª mais vendida no Reino Unido em 1981, consolidando seu impacto comercial e crítico.
