Jerry Sadowitz who appeared in Terry Hall's Terry Blair&Anouchka's video of Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes, complained that this video infringed his copyright,
I removed Jerry and replace his appearance with graphic animation. It's taken 5 months!
Although angry with Jerry, I am also grateful because, I would have never learned Adobe After Effects and animation.
Jerry's replaced by a number of colourful characters! Marc Bolan even makes an appearance! Bet he won't complain??!
Have'nt heard this for years. Me and my bf loved this track it was a kind of ''our song'' thing. I married that bf and i'm still with him. I'm in hospital at the moment with a "grumbling'' appendix, visiting times over and hes gone home...'sob" lol this got me smiling again thanks :-) x
I saw them at Goldiggers in Chippenham that year (Branson owned the venue and I saw dozens of chart acts there), sadly only about 50 people showed and Terry was well pissed off!
Hi people, this is Blair from Terry, Blair & Anouchka. I put up the video of Ultra modern Nursery Rhymes and received a disclaimer from Jerry Sadowitz that I was infringing his copyright. How sad is this? A harmless video, no money changes hands, it's not played on TV and the only exposure is through web sites like YouTube.
The girl's name is Katrina Phillips. This song is released in January 1985. Lead vocals is from the band Fun Boy Three, Terry Hall. Too bad the band were not marketed right to otherwise unique musical approach in a new wave genre rich with good songs from great bands.
There were some brilliant songs around in early '85. Unfortunately, in late '85 the rot started to set in in British Pop music, with the arrival of Whitney Houston and The Pet Shop Boys, then music became dull and bland and has never really recovered, with a few notable exceptions.
I havent heard this for years and years and i still love it !!!!

懐かしい!!!スペシャルズ、ファン・ボーイ・スリーとはまた違うアプローチで出てきたのも、リリース当初は驚きました。当時、ネオ・アコブームってのがあって、オレンジ・ジュースとか、アズテック・カメラとか、アコギメインのバンドがたくさんありましたが、その中でもこの曲、好きでしたね。今聞いてもいい曲だわ。声がなんとなくプラスチックスの中西俊夫さんに似てるのも好きな要素です。

Terry Hall is a gem in the music industry. He is cool in every sense. It's a shame that he's buried by so many pop junk.

I couldnt warm to this , most of what TH did after FB3 was bland, empty, soul-less music.
The girl appeared a fake after comparing her TOTP and OGWT performances.

No, she was turned down by Bananarama on account of being decent looking and able to sing.
