Deceptive Bends

Deceptive Bends is the fifth studio album by the English rock band 10cc, released in May 1977 by Mercury Records. It was the first album released by the band after the departure of founding members Kevin Godley and Lol Creme and produced the hit single "The Things We Do for Love".

The first single taken from the album, "The Things We Do for Love", reached No. 1 in Canada, No. 6 in the UK singles chart, No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 where it was later certified Gold and became the band's best selling single there.

Deceptive Bends itself was also a success, performing better than previous 10cc albums in a number of countries.
