Kazuhide Uekusa, Japanese economist, nicknamed Mirrorman after being arrested for an incident involving a hand mirror, an escalator, and a high school girl's skirt
"Mirror Man" was the first track written and recorded by the Human League after they returned from their World Tour, conducted in the wake of the enormous international success of their album Dare. "Mirror Man" was conceived and written as a celebration of Oakey and Wright's love of Motown records. It has been described as electronic northern soul, with Oakey's main verses delivered in deliberate sentences with emphasis on the last word of each sentence. Vocalists Susan Ann Sulley and Joanne Catherall feature prominently throughout the song but have no lyrics, providing backing vocals of "oohs" and "ahhs". Recording and production was overseen by Martin Rushent, who had produced the band's album Dare.
"Mirror Man" is a song recorded by British singer and songwriter Ella Henderson for her debut studio album, Chapter One (2014). It was released in the UK on 8 March 2015 via Syco Music as the fourth single off the album. The song was written by Henderson, Al Shuckburgh, and Laura Pergolizzi, and was produced by Shuckburgh under his production moniker Al Shux. "Mirror Man" entered the Official UK Singles Chart at number 96.
Content
"Mirror Man" is a mid-tempo blues and funk song whose lyrics discuss a selfish lover who puts him or herself before anyone else. Henderson revealed to the Official Charts Company that the song was written about "the most self-centred person I’ve ever met," and that she enjoys singing the tune due to its sassy attitude.
Music video
The official music video for "Mirror Man" was directed by Colin Tiley and premiered on 9 March 2015. Henderson has described the aesthetic of the video as "graphic" and "edgy", noting that it shows a different side of herself. The video features a panther, whose shapeshifting is meant to symbolize the vanity of the titular "mirror man", and uses special effects to depict Henderson being consumed by fire, sand, and smoke, amongst other elements.
The Human League are an English electronicnew wave band formed in Sheffield in 1977. Dare (1981), the band's most popular album, yielded the single "Don't You Want Me", a No.1 hit in the pop charts of UK, US and many other countries. After its UK success, their first single, "Being Boiled", was reissued and became a top ten hit at the beginning of 1982. They received the Brit Award for Best British Breakthrough act in 1982. The success of "Don't You Want Me" is seen as the beginning of the MTV-driven Second British Invasion of the US. Other international hits include: "Love Action", "Open Your Heart", "Mirror Man", "Fascination", "The Lebanon", "Human" (a US No.1) and "Tell Me When".
The only constant band member since 1977 is vocalist and songwriter Philip Oakey. Originally an avant-garde all-male synthesizer-based group, The Human League evolved into a commercially successful synthpop band under Oakey's leadership. Since 1987, the band has essentially been a trio of Oakey and long-serving female vocalists Joanne Catherall and Susan Ann Sulley (both of whom joined the ensemble in 1980), with various sidemen.

That was the best-quality upload of this music video I could find online. I have replaced the audio track with a high-quality one of the single, and this involved speeding up the footage slightly, as it was running a bit slow compared to the HQ audio track I am using. The original music video was given a very strange ending in which the music was faded out quickly before the final chorus. It did not sound or look good, so I decided to feature the full-length track, and to accompany the final chorus, I have put up on screen three pictures of the single as released in the UK. I have also added optional subtitles for the lyrics.
This music video was conceived and directed by Brian Duffy.
This song was written by Philip Oakey, Jo Callis and Ian Burden. This track was produced by Martin Rushent and the Human League, and was released in 1982. According to Wikipedia, this single went to No. 1 in Ireland, and reached No. 2 in their native UK, No. 4 in Australia, No. 7 in Canada, No. 17 in Belgium, No. 19 in South Africa and Sweden, No. 23 in New Zealand, No. 30 in the USA, No. 31 in the Netherlands, No. 49 in Germany, and No. 84 in France.

An official presentation of the lyrics to this song is to be found printed on the back cover of the Japan release of the single, a picture of which can be seen here:

Another official presentation of these lyrics is to be found in the form of optional subtitles provided with the official upload of this music video on the official Human League YouTube channel. Here is the link: https://youtu.be/MMu1T_Tg5Fw
These two official presentations have one difference; the former has the line "Left behind, oh, long ago" and the latter has this line as "Left behind not long ago". To determine which of these is correct, I have had a look at several videos of live performances of this song, and have concluded that the latter one is the correct one. Here is a link to a live performance in which these words are very clear to hear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5i-3txcsvY&t=1m49s
Presented below and as optional subtitles in the video is my own transcript of the lyrics, for which I have used those official presentations as a guide.
LYRICS
"Mirror Man"
- The Human League
(Words and Music by Philip Oakey, Jo Callis and Ian Burden)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Aah)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Aah)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
The water shines
A pebble skips across the face
A dozen times
Then disappears, not a trace
Left behind
The thrower turns and walks away
A change of mind
Another start, a brand-new day
You know I'll change
If change is what you require
Your every wish
Your every dream, hope, desire
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)
Says he's a people fan (Ooh)
Here comes the mirror man
And if it seems
I'm not the one you used to know
Our little friendship
Left behind not long ago
Don't feel too hurt
As distance heals the strongest pain
Things are much better now
And just the nagging doubt remains
You know I'll change
If change is what you require
Your every wish
Your every dream, hope, desire
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)
Says he's a people fan (Ooh)
Here comes the mirror man
(Aah)
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)
Says he's a people fan (Ooh)
Here comes the mirror man
(Aah)
[Break]
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)
Says he's a people fan (Ooh)
Here comes the mirror man
(Aah)
(The mirror man, the mirror man)
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)
Says he's a people fan (Ooh)
Here comes the mirror man
(Aah)
(The mirror man, the mirror man)
Here comes the mirror man (Ooh)

Kazuhide Uekusa, Japanese economist, nicknamed Mirrorman after being arrested for an incident involving a hand mirror, an escalator, and a high school girl's skirt
I sit alone in my chamber I sit and stare into the void And feel alone There is just one ray in my chamber A big old mirror on the wall Or a secret gate to the unknown I must leave the coldness Of this world behind I have to hide away Where I can't be found I am hypnotized by the mirror's shine I am hypnotized by the mirror man Show me the way to you I watch myself in the mirror A big pale man is all that I see Is it me? I focus on my own pupils A silver frame is all that I see I disappear I'm flying through quick silver With the speed of thoughts I am within the mirror In a timeless world I am hypnotized by the silver shine I am hypnotized by the mirror man Show me the way to you Nobody just the mind in this place of light This place of light, a place of light To observe the world from behind the mirror In this place of light Just quick silver shine I see the world like nobody can No ticking time Time I come back to my mirror And I wonder what if I'm still sitting still there But the only thing I see is an old chair Not me It's the only thing You see There are many places The eyes cannot see An immaterial world Where I can be free I am hypnotized by the mirror's shine I am hypnotized by the mirror man The eternal mind is reality But it's hard to find what the eyes can't see I am hypnotized by the mirror's shine I am hypnotized by the mirror man I have seen the mirror man I became the mirror man You see a man in the mirror Is it you Or is it me?
