"Mind of a Toy" is the third single by the British synth-pop group Visage, released on Polydor Records in March 1981. It was taken from the band's eponymous debut album, following up their international hit "Fade to Grey".

Music video

The music video for the single was directed by former 10cc members Godley & Creme, who had branched out into video production by that time.[1] The theme of the video was Steve Strange's idea, who decided on a Little Lord Fauntleroy look. In his autobiography, Blitzed!, Strange claimed that the video was banned by the BBC's Top of the Pops as it was considered to be "frightening for children",[2] however it was actually screened on the show on 19 March 1981.
