I love all the Act 12"s, and I was lucky enough 5 years ago to find a 12" of the withdrawn "Chance" in a 2nd hand record shop, cost £40 but well worth every penny.
It's very hard to find as it was withdrawn, (both the 7" and the 12") neither version is on the cd anthology either which is a shame, I think it's because of a tiny (and I do mean TINY) sample of "Take a chance on me" by Abba that is on it. you could try a company called Esprit-they have a website, just put E.I.L in google search. Good luck.
Propaganda, Act, Claudia Brucken, OneTwo,Brain are all THE BEST DANCE RECORDS. I packed the dance floor when playing ANY Claudia Brucken song. Thank You Claudia for over 20 years of excellence!
Great to see this on YouTube = I was a big PROPAGANDA fan in 1986 -- played album over and over again -- before cds and mp3s. Claudia Brucken is a goddess of music
PT1: Not only was Claudia one distinctive presence in PROPAGANDA but she's also a very warm and charming person, as I could see during conversations after the ONETWO show in Santiago, Chile, last November. Thank you Claudia and thanks Greywolf6 for sharing this rare promo tape.
Wish we can see these rare tapes on dvd one day, as well as the live PROPAGANDA shows on deleted LD THE VALUE OF ENTERTAINMENT with STEVE JANSEN (no less) on drums !
saw claudia singing ' because the night' on tv years ago, have it on video somewhere - trouble is, its 4 minutes in 1000's of hours of tape...aaaaarrrrggghh
Always a favourite of mine-does anyone have a video of Wound In My Heart or Heaven Give Me Words?? Not sure if they exist, but if they dont, then they definately ought to!!
I love this song, having see Greg Stump's Blizzard of Aahhh's about 100 times, but damn if this video isn't hilarious. It always sounded to me like the most euro-fabulous, cocaine fueled 80's track possible, and perhaps the video confirms the dark side of that theory.
Thomas and Claudia ROCK!

Thanks a lot to futurehistoric (and not Greywolf6)!
This is, I feel, one of the best post PROPAGANDA songs by Claudia in ACT and am happy I could play it on radio here in Chile.
BTW, I'm curious to know what are eeax2's top 5 songs of all time.
