Dreams That Money Can't Buy was a commercial failure and did not chart in the UK, while the singles " Where Has Love Gone?" and " Across the Universe" performed very poorly on UK singles chart. In November 1991, Johnson learned that he was HIV positive. [9] This triggered a temporary withdrawal from the music business and public life in general, with one of his last TV performances around the time being at the Diamond Record Awards, Antwerp, where he performed "Americanos" and "Where Has Love Gone?". [17] His HIV status was made public during an interview with The Times in April 1993. [14]

[32] The film is to be written and directed by Bernard Rose, who directed the original music videos for the band's songs " Relax" (1983) and " Welcome to the Pleasuredome" (1985). In 1985, Frankie Goes to Hollywood left the UK for a year for tax purposes and wrote songs for their second album in Ireland. [27] The media reported that disputes had formed within the band. [27] They began recording their second album, Liverpool, in Wisseloord Studios, near Amsterdam, in November 1985. Between March and June 1986, they worked in ZTT's studio Sarm West in London. The album was produced by the ZTT engineer Stephen Lipson; Horn took over mixing in its final stages. [27] After such success during 1984, when the band spent nearly four months at the top of the singles chart, Johnson was firmly established as a household name. By autumn 1986, his star had faded considerably. Frankie Goes to Hollywood had not released any material since early 1985 and were absent from that year's Live Aid event. In addition, Johnson did not perform on the successful charity single " Do They Know It's Christmas?" by Band Aid in December 1984.
