Midge usually sings beautifully. I've seen him live several times to know this. I think what was throwing him off was that wanker in the gray jacket, who kept trying to sing in some strange opposite key and harmony.

[audioboffin]

Looks a lot like Mark Kennedy back there on the drum stool....? is that Kirk on sax?

[xraytube111]

Why didn't some one tell Midge that he can't sing? I don't understand.

[dickyhart]

[EgaNinja]

Oh dear, cringe factor high ....

It's Pierre Gigliotti, bassplayer from Pseudo Echo

[frankscan65]

And later Mushroom Records Graphic Artist.

[MrMatty80]

Who is the guy shown at 3:11?

[nearlyoutofideas]

Actually, I'm not sure! I think it's someone from Kids In The Kitchen (synth / hair / New Romantic band of the era) but I couldn't be definite. Maybe someone else might know.

[andrewcjscott]

@nearlyoutofideas Pretty sure it's Brian Canham from Psuedo Echo. They had such "huge" hits as "Beat For You" and "Funkytown"

[SeventhStranger71]

@MrMatty80

that Pierre from Pseudo Echo

[skillynaomi]

@MrMatty80 3.11 is pierre from speudo echo

[gailmckennag]

@skillynaomi i think ity's jame leigh .

[MrMatty80]

Gotta love those '80s hair styles and clothes! XD I was born in 1980 and remember them all!

[Skyhooks1975]

Who's in the band??? Midge Ure & Glenn Shorrock, (lead vocals) Brian Cadd (piano), James Valentine (sax), backing vocals - Renee Geyer, Venetta Fields, Brian Canham, John Farnham, Daryl Braithwaite, Shirley Strachan, Greedy Smith, Wendy Stapleton, Brian Mannix, Scott Carne, who else???

[nearlyoutofideas]

In the actual band, apart from those mentioned, I''m not sure. Also in the chorus: Kate Ceberano - others from I'm Talking? - John Justin, fairly sure Andrew Duffield from the Models,, Hugh McDonald from Redgum (in a Redgum T-shirt), Sharon O'Neill. A few others I have no idea about!

[tundra219]

I'm loving that the band needs lyric sheets and still seems to be botching them. Or maybe it's because the camera keeps cutting to people who aren't singing.

[FreeTheRocks]

That's hysterical.....GREAT find. Thanks for sharing.
