i went to school with david newman he was a yeare above me. springfield primary school. he was a cool dude then and still is. nice one dave . herman remeber me lol
This was them obviously trying to update their sound and appear contemporary with the onset of baggy, bit like what The Soup Dragons did. Didn't work.
I love their sound, it surrounds you. Classic-modern-elegant. If he's gay, his voice still sounded so manly... cool name for a band too! They should be recognized while they are still alive.
the drops were hugely under rated which is why we are still talking about them.....us real fans know great tunes when we hear them...london new cross i think it was in 1991...stunning show...then they split....devastated
Hi, Couldnt agree with you more, very underated, but hey, at least you got to see them live. Who knows they may reform one day, most groups from the 80s/90s have.
Great song, dreadful video . . . Sort of like they were trying to imitate The Beastie Boy's "So Whatcha Want?", only they're pale English lads, not street-smart New Yorkers. Still, they were a great band and Dave Newton wrote great pop songs.
They were well before the madchester thing. I haven't heard anything from them since 1985. Thanks whoever uploaded this.

This band maintained a simple yet sophisticated solid style since the 1980's.
The homosexaulity of the lead singer conflicted with manly tones of the instrumention.
Presenting many western youth with a vibe of deception.
That is why the Mighty Lemon Drops remained mostly esoteric in the U.S.
