See That Glow

[odessa702]

This song popped into my head today and I am so excited to find the video here!!! This was one of my favourite songs when I was in high school in the 80's and I still love it!! Thanks for posting this New Wave gem!

[linear23]

I used to have this single. Loved the other side too! Wish the quality was better cause the record was recorded well.

[petitanglais]

Recorded this off the radio in England many years ago: very bad quality, couldn't make out the title. Thanks to google, searched the lyrics and found it. Cheers for the upload, poptastic!

[jimspoonable]

easily one of the best 80's tracks ever.it should be re-released cos no doubt it would be a stick-on no.1,so lets start a petition........... hey it worked for that crap song from rage against the machine!!! c'mon true 80's lovers whaddya say?????

[rhthesinner]

I converted my 12" of this yesterday. It still remains one of my favourites after all these years.

[MexicanCheezeTaco]

awesome



[essertpitay]

My regards to Rachel. From Bavaria with love.

[stimps]

I saw this on a local video show way back when. I love it! Thank you. =)

[cloughc1]

Just thrown away the 7" single today whilst clearing out a load of garbage - thought I'd do a search and see what masterpiece I'd destroyed...

...not a great loss!

[80sl80]

Ohhhh the memories. I am glad there are people out there with great taste in music. I don't remember how many times I sat glued by the stereo with my finger on "pause" waiting so I could record this. I never could find this, I only heard it on the radio. LOVE IT!!!!!

[benlu123]

Love that bit at 0.54

[DitchPikey]

Bings back memories of being woken up by my sister blasting this out from her room. Fab! Must pull my finger out and convert some vinyl to MP3 !

[martyvalentine]

I played this version regularly when I was a DJ during the 1980s - It was then remixed in 1987 - (NYC EDIT) - I played that version and I'm still amazed that never became a big hit

[pawnsacrifice1]

God I remember seeing this on Saturday Superstore and still remember it for some reason

[Doctoryesify]

John Hawkins in now in IT!

[jaydabaron]

omg i have this on single i saw the video to this on "was it swap shop?" i bought the single an never heard anymore of them i cant believe how long its been since last saw ...... a brilliant song many thanks

[johnblack191]

What a class piece of the 80s, I live just around the corner from Kev Brown, Great to find this video. 5*******

[beamergeezer]

love it. Still got the 12" vinyl

[Nova2000uk]

I love this song... I wish soneone would do a cover so it's known!!

[thefaboloussob]

I'm a child of the '80s (b. 1978) & enjoy the decade's music, but I'm recognizing this song & artist now. I discovered this from Aquafans, as it has some chick underwater. & I am all about those underwater girls! This video was okay, though.

[newterritory4u]

The song was written about my old next door neighbor. She played in This Island Earth and the singer went out with her for a while. Great to hear it again. Brings back fond memories.

[ellsybow]

really who was your old next door neighbor cus the lead singer is my uncle :)

[newterritory4u]

Don't like giving out names without permission, but ask yr uncle about the girl who lived in Longridge Lancashire. See what he says :) I think they're still good friends. By the way, I've lost touch with her so if you do get in touch, ask her to give Peter, her old neighbour a shout. Thanks

[ellsybow]

yeah cool i will. im going on holiday with him and my family soon so yeah will tell him :)

[stacksovids12]

I was a roadi for Pink Floyd!

[ilovenitnat]

just been taken back in time! Was it 84 or 85? loved this song...........

[SONOR4]

Been looking for this for years. Great stuff. It was all over the radio, but never did as well as it should have.

[itchywitchy]

Cheers for posting, have this on 7" vinyl, one of my fave tracks from the 80's never seen the video before.

[mondo56]

Great video, I remember was one of the early videos released and one of the best!! Thanks for posting!!

[THIRV]

they followed this up with an even stronger song, called "take me to the fire"....wish the video for that would reach youtube too !

great add though, Aspie. well done.

[quietagent]

I couldn't agree more - I would love to see a video or even music played to a still shot for "Take Me To The Fire" - It was only played in NYC by WLIR a few times and I consider myself fortunate to have heard it, it has been stuck in my mind ever since. I have been searching for this song for since then (I don't remember an album being released in the U.S.) and would love to get a copy of it. Thanks again for posting "See That Glow"!

[THIRV]

great thoughts, quietagent; as you say, we didn't need to hear 'fire' many times for it to stick in the mind forever. i bought the 12" single of TMTTF, without even hearing it on the radio in the UK. i bought it cos 'see that glow' DID get some exposure here, and so i simply took a chance on liking 'fire' too....was amazed with it,liked it even more than 'glow'. i think that 12" record is with a friend of mine now, as i dont have a player to play it. i want to hear it again !

[THIRV]

as you say, wish we could get hold of a copy

of the album. i doubt it's available on CD

anywhere. if anyone knows that it is, please

tell us !!! :O) great music. cheers.

[thepuffinboy]

I have all their singles, mixes, b sides etc on CDR

[thepuffinboy]

you should...they are awesome!

[DerVampyrEngel]

I got this the 12 inch, love this song

[benlu123]

To Mazdiver...is it you doing the upside down stuff and that dive at the beginning? I'm impressed!

[benjimorren5]

Absolutely love this song! Was due to hit the top 40 the same week as Love and Pride by King. However, style over substance won the day and This Island Earth missed out! Great pity...and where are King now?

[essertpitay]

Rachel Rachel...Joyeuses fetes...

[cuteoverload]

Excellent tune... good video !! Thanks for posting this 80s gem for retro 80s music fans all over the world..!! :)

[woodstrup]

I do too! Well we were at least two people who bought this song... no wonder it didn't get to no. 1 - shame though.

[parky2310]

Gary Davies on the Air!!!!

Top Tune!!!

[Herarsetoymug]

1053, 1089, Radio 1, Feel alive!

:)

[mikemelia]

Kev, if you ever see this then drop me a line at my name @ gmail. Would love to hear from you again, mate.

[teawanga]

excellent, thanks for posting this rare treat, any other rare 80s gems?

[thespecimen]

Love this video

was there a video for 'Take me to the Fire'

and has anyone got the album ?

[ledzep173]

If anyone knows how to get in touch with John Hawkins Let us know. Richard Jackman from Power

[2colin66]

Thanks so much for posting this! I have been looking for this off and on for 20 years.

[benlu123]

I've been looking for this for a while! I too taped it off Sat Superstore and I remember having a crush on the lovely swimming lady!! Anyone know who she was?

[giantballoon]

Once again, another obscure band I never heard of with a great song -- this should have been a staple on MTV back in the day.

[SurrealAspie]

If John Hawkins or Kevin Brown should ever stumble across this posting, i would like to tell you, that you are very much appreciated. Please release your album on the net!! I would buy it !!

[timmcnulty]

I second that.

[timmcnulty]

I love this song! I still dust off my old 7" copy every now and again. Another top song from a Liverpudlian band.

[h1aa]

Have it on video. Must be about 22 or 23 years old now. Our premiere music show was Radio With Pictures and they broadcast a lot of the more obscure stuff. It wasn't all obscure though because I think on the same episode they screened Tears For Fears "Shout".Must transfer those old vids to dvd sometime.

[SurrealAspie]

This is from Saturday Super Store 1985.

[Ricknjane]

Great song, have it on 12"

[waxamatic]

awesome song thanx for posting

[crazyclive]

I'll second that! Been searching this for ages!! :)
