Great song in the best tradition of The Fixx music and lyrics. They always had a great way of the lyrics and the rhythm/melody matching perfectly. (How many songs have you heard and said "great music, stupid lyrics" and vice-versa? They weren't by The Fixx.) The Kings of Alternate.
@wombatster MAN DID YOU SAY A MOUTH FULL AND I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU BECAUSE YOU MY FRIEND ARE SO RIGHT I LOVE THIS BAND, HAVE THIS GROUP EVER DONE A BAD SONG? I DON'T THINK SO.
if this song could only get # 32 and then bested at #20 the folks must have been listening on garbage sound systems. if this stuff was on these days the radio listeners would think, "huh--what"?---because they think today,s stuff is music,---very sad---
This is a pretty simple song, and Alfie Agius was fired because "he couldn't do it the way they wanted it done" either the guy was a nut or incompetent or said 'no, it goes this way, and in reply they say 'No, Alfie, it goes like this'.
Wonder who had to give him the boot?
Thank Goodness for Dan K. Brown who filled this spot beautifully.
In retrospect I wonder if any of Agius' takes on this survived?
Dan K.'s first song after Alfie was let go.

Should have been #1, what is wrong with people's taste in music? The Fixx rock and are super-creative!
