The Beat - Mirror in the Bathroom

[Biigfish559]

mmm tantalising glimpse of a WMPTE Fleetline in the shop window, captures my fave era perfectly Yowza!

[warumbel]

Damn... not on spotify

[TheHarryButtery]

@warumbel Used to be, hope it'll be back. When the copyright owners for albums changes Spotify has to remove the songs for a bit. That's my guess of why its gone. Usually back in a week or two in that case. Or they've taken it off because they're pissed at getting paid 0.0001p per play.

have bought Dave a beer and sat and drank it with him on more than one occasion

[coopergreg22]

Dave lives in Santa Monica, plays all over the US, last year was the most touring new wave band in the US. Seen them oh about 25 times now !!!  Never gets old, always awesome !!!!!!!

[hellradiolives]

I had forgotten all about this song! Gads, does it ever remind me of early Police (which is a wonderful thing).

[DRAMATRIX]

The Black Guy Jumpin is the same guy from General Public? General Public - Tenderness

[geegeefaggot]

@DRAMATRIX Rankin' Roger? I had a crush on him when I was little. :)

[neilmcneiler]

Thumbs up if White Van Man brought you here.

[Maccelona]

The Beat like all the two tone acts helped to define a generation politically, socially and made great music. can't believe how wooden they looked though :-)
