About this album
Babylon and On is a sharp, hook-laden late-period Squeeze album that refines the band’s melodic power-pop without losing their lyrical bite. Released in 1987, it marked a confident return after a short break and found Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford balancing catchy choruses with more reflective, mature songwriting. The album produced one of the band’s best-known singles in Hourglass, a Top 20 UK hit that helped keep Squeeze in the mainstream conversation. Across the record, the band combines concise arrangements, bright guitars and lived-in storytelling into one of their most accessible 1980s releases.
