...i love reminiscing my wxb102/wbc1422 days, wow with this song, b4 goin to school, it gives me a dramatic cool change in my school day's attitude and my perspective in studying...this song was great!!!.....genius in the making!!! thx for posting it.
Is there any better song testifying the beauty and melancholic 80'ies?? Just perfect. Amazing, this song did not reach the global awareness he would have deserved

This was truely a great era for music. Lots of great bands didn't actually make it BIG, but gace us some very melodic tunes that we sorely miss today. More covers in the music scene now, not much origanal material. I amybe wrong thou, I am sure younger dudes wil disagree, but it feels that way
Yeah, The 80's rule, but time moves on and we remenber with great fondness. Went to See Go West, Nick Hayward, Fine young cannibals a year or so ago, and they were really good

I have never seen any videos from them until now, When I was a teenager it was very hard to get their music here in the USA. I like the fact that they admired Kate Bush very much. Awesome band. Thanks for the video.
Very rare video, thanks for posting it. I noticed a few other new vids by TLE, lately. With China Crisis, it's the most underrated band of their time.
I see 80's artists love Louise Brooks!!!...love her too...tnx!!! ;D
