I loved AFOS when I was a teen in the early '80s. Became a big fan in 1982. Unfortunately I never saw the original band during the height of their success but saw AFOS circa 1990 at the Strand in Redondo Beach. The band was not the original. The originals already had left and it was only Mike Score with hired hands. I wish I did see the original when I had the chance. Mike S did not push them out of the band. I think they quit. Not his fault. When they reformed I missed them again.

technogirl101 No worries im still another obsessed fan of theres too I remember once i hitch hicked 65 miles to go see them back in the 80s and have seen them perform 4 0r 5 other times since then that time i hitch hicked i left arounf 5 pm got there on time got back home at 6 am and never regreted it i would do it again too If I had too .. I have everything ever sold of theres autographs too ..Tell me if I am not a afos fan by heart ..
ya its mike score he broke up with his brother ally score and the rest ov the band but went back to getter in 2003 but only hade a one night stand now the flock of seagulls is going strong in america were miuke score lives now :D
I was always told if the music is too loud then your to old i have always been to there concerts whether it be a small club or big the music always is going to be loud and thats the way i think mike should continue to play , So you go Mike play it loud !
This band ruined my hearing! I saw them live back in 1992 in a small club. His keyboards were so loud that I had hearing loss for 3 days! Turn it down Mike!
There's a band from Michigan called The Barn Doors that's about to release a cover of this song. Word is the lead singer is a big AFOS fan, and got tired of waiting for another reunion, so he decided to record the song with his band. I saw them a few weeks ago and they played it - sounded great. They're a rockabilly band, but the song sounded awesome.
What is the problem between the original members? They reunited a few years ago, did a few shows, and split. They really need to patch up their differences. They loved the reunion, according to interviews. In fact Paul cried and said "It's a dream come true." I talked to one of them and I really think it's ego. Life is too short for this crap. With so many fans willing to listen AND PAY to see the original 4, do it! They're sitting on a goldmine but waisting time whining about each other.
Marvelous ORIGINAL band.Wouldn't it be great.. I mean Really great. if the original 4 some got back together for one world tour. Sometimes I think to myself,they dont comprehend just how brilliant they are!! C'mon lads,forget your differences and play one more time us.

I remember this song from the day, very melancholic. But I would be a bit disappointed if a went to see AFOSG and he was wearing a hat.
