  • it should have been no 1  this

  • @SuperBoogley I'll never quite understand why so many popular songs don't become bigger hits.Tough time for this sweet gem,because that summer of '79 also saw the chart-creating public buying records in massive numbers everywhere - producing an extraordinary variety of megahits

  • Thanks very much for mentioning that.It seems hard to believe,that The Korgis were almost a hobby side project to Stackridge,which was a totally different prog-rock folk sound from the earlier 70s. The Late Late Show,here on the Orlando CBS,doesn't air till gone 1am.When I heard the run-down,I could NOT believe my ears on Monday.I had to wait till 2am to see that it was absolutely true - Craig even intro'd them by saying he was 10 when he first heard them :) It was surreally nostalgic

  • heard this on rafio 1 roadshow with dlt instructing the nation to throw their windows open so everyone could hear. just after bits and pieces if i remember correctly.

  • @miakirshner09 What a brilliant memory! It sounds so specific,that I'm sure you remembered it spot on.And I'm sure the Radio One jocks would indeed have implored such an act - especially DLT

  • This song brings back a few memories. A sure classic and still sounds as good today as all those years ago. That guitar rift is fab!!. Happy days

  • Thanks for downloading, and there ar good comments here but, pity the sound quality is poor. there are several much fuller/clearer versions from Cd here too.

  • Still such a great record. :)

  • Oh for the days of teenage angst

  • @miakirshner09 NICE STORY....... NOSTALGIA IS A WONDERFUL THING ,MUSIC IS THE KEY TO THE SOUL, AND YOUTUBE IS A FANTASTIC INNOVATION, I'D BE LOST WITHOUT IT
