Indie bubblegum poprock. Ya' gotta' love it! Andrea Lewis had a great voice (never could stand Tracy Tracy's caterwauling) and was backed by great musicians.
I used to love The Darling Buds!!! They were one of the many blonde female led bands of the late 80's out of Coventry. Always felt that they were underrated! I loved their earlier stuff particularly. They just had this sound that was great! Although Andrea was always compared to Tracy Tracy of The Primitives, Andrea had her own style of singing and performing. I still have my old DB stuff from 20 years ago. Even the "Erotica" album had some good stuff on it. I'm glad others remember as well!!
Sorry about that. It was extremely early in the morning when I wrote that and it has been 20 years. But thanks to wildeman, I guess I'm not the only one who was off. Thanks wildeman for clearing that up. Either way, I'm glad you guys all remember them and liked them. Not a lot of people remember these cool bands from where I'm from.
How am I going to explain this to my grandchildren when they walk into my room at the "old-folks" home and they catch me playing this on youtube? Of course, it will be playing "like-live" in 3 D in the middle of my musty room by then, using 'frickin' lazer beams...
Andrea and her blond bob were great I've still got mine 19 years on! I thought they were brilliant and this is my favourite song they did Lets go round there is close though. Bye
This is great, I wish there was a more complete and better-looking version. I don't understand why this great band wasn't more popular. Perhaps Andrea was too cute?
I love them all , primitives, darling buds but what about the flatmates!! No video's found so far!

Fantastic intro! It's not on their truly excellent disc, ...pop said. Burst and The Other Night are my favorite songs there.
