- "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes" is the second single from Lament, Ultravox's seventh studio album, released in 1984. The single effectively put Ultravox back on the map, peaking at #3 in the UK single charts, and reaching the top 10 in many European countries. The song is about the fear experienced in the 1980s over the possibility of a nuclear power plant meltdown. The music video depicts Midge Ure running home after discovering that a nuclear explosion is imminent. The video ends with the power plant exploding, and the powerful image of a recorded home video of Ure, his wife and their child, with the visual effect of a melting film. The 7" single was released in three versions: with a standard picture sleeve, with a gate-fold booklet sleeve, and with a gate-fold booklet sleeve and a clear vinyl disc. All versions had the same catalogue number, "UV 1", and the same tracks. The 12" was released in two versions, with the same catalogue number "UVX 1": in a stickered gatefold sleeve containing a band poster and in a standard picture sleeve. The B-side, "Building", is a morose piano ballad.
- Dancing with Tears in My Eyes är den brittiska New Romanticgruppen Ultravox's andra singel från albumet Lament. Den skrevs av medlemmarna i Ultravox: Midge Ure, Chris Cross, Warren Cann och Billy Currie. Den handlar om den allmänna rädslan för kärnkraften, och vad som kunde hända om det blev en härdsmälta. Efter olyckan i Harrisburg var folk mer medvetna om farorna. I musikvideon springer Midge Ure genom en panikslagen stad efter att larmet om en härdsmälta kommit. Kärnkraftverket exploderar, och en hemmagjord film med Ure, hans fru och deras son avslutar videon. Dancing with Tears in My Eyes låg på englandslistan i elva veckor, och nådde som bäst en tredje placering. I Sverige är den, tillsammans med Vienna, Ultravox's mest kända låt. Den finns med på soundtracket till Tjenare Kungen. Artister som gjort covers på låten är bl.a. The Poodles och Velvet.
