Modern Romance - Walking In The Rain

[goffer43]

This takes me back.. Being 10 years in 1983, mum driving me to Tescos - in the rain! Listening to the charts on a tape. There was this and 'Ol Rag Blues' by Status Quo in the same chart. Reading then new Spider-Man annual. Ah, the memories...:)

I hated Modern Romance but this song was great. Real white soul, as good as anything you'll ever hear

[marilyn5884]

saw the rain today and remembered this song. aaaahhhh memories! xx

[katlohangkuan]

when i finally found this song today,i was really thrilled,cause i could not get this cd here in singapore! n irregardless of what others say, i still feel that british bands and singers are the best!

[earnie1974]

@katlohangkuan

I love this song!!!!

[Wickawoman]

Hey what's this about a piano only version on the B-Side? Does anyone have this?It sounds as if it would be fabulous. Amazing song. . Clocked Michael on Myspace. If the photos are anything to go by, he's looking great for his age. Hard to believe he's 57 now but then again I am 38 and not 10:-). He's "Mick" these days so it would seem.

Yes The Blow Monkeys were 100% worse than Modern Romance ever was.I really don't think that Modern Romance was as bad as you say they were.Just because they did this one ballad of a song.Even Tears For Fears were worse than Modern Romance and way more commercial along with The Police and Men At Work.

[EternalGatherings]

I remember them releasing this in the summer when the UK was in the middle of a drought!!!

[sharstess]

yes darts

[imsohappy]

There are indeed worse groups than Modern Romance. But can anybody seriously think of one?

[ycfunlover]

remember being in 4th year and getting ready to go into fith year and this song always stuck in my head

[CraigG1960]

I always had a soft spot (probaboy in the back of my skull) for this one.

[Cokacorla]

Oh I had lost this song for years but could remember the chorus and a friend got it pressed for me. You Pre Youtube kids don't know how easy this is now but it was harder to find your old favourites 'when I was young'!! It was such an underrated song. Fab. x

[aychbombsk8]

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO, YOU ALL MISSED IT!!!!!!!!!!! on the B-side of the 7 inch Katz an kiddies ask your mum and dads, there was a stripped version with just a piano it was the dogs bo#@$%ks amazing song...that's the one that should of been posted. Yes I did have it; no I haven't got it now; yes I was a slag and yes some girl moved out and took it. Guilty!

[MrGondolier]

@aychbombsk8 hehe

[rxg4ba]

[darrenrobertw]

God i feel old, i bought this when it came out, was young and thought life would be so easy, little did i know. Still, really really cool memories, and am ALWAYS being told i live in the past, but it did seem easier then. Thanks for posting.

[markyscooterboy]

[Babagugukoko]

Hey , anyone knows where to get this song from ? (:

[shiftromeo]

You can get the mp3 (256kps high quality) version from UK "7Digital"downloads. Search the group name and song title.....viola!

[earnie1974]

@shiftromeo

give us the link please :)

[FaerieCrone]

And you must be either slow or stupid. Answering a comment from a year ago and having to 'shout' in capital letters just to get your point across. Whatever it is. You know, not everyone is going to like what you like. Get used to it. It's called 'life'.

[golfhk]

oh thank you so much for seeing this video again!! The good old 80's

[Raceytrac67]

i use to love modern romance but i better not admit it today lol..... love this song

[tractorboy406]
