Once again, another obscure band I never heard of with a great song -- this should have been a staple on MTV back in the day.

If John Hawkins or Kevin Brown should ever stumble across this posting, i would like to tell you, that you are very much appreciated. Please release your album on the net!! I would buy it !!

Have it on video. Must be about 22 or 23 years old now. Our premiere music show was Radio With Pictures and they broadcast a lot of the more obscure stuff. It wasn't all obscure though because I think on the same episode they screened Tears For Fears "Shout".Must transfer those old vids to dvd sometime.

This is from Saturday Super Store 1985.

they followed this up with an even stronger song, called "take me to the fire"....wish the video for that would reach youtube too !

great add though, Aspie. well done.

[THIRV]

as you say, wish we could get hold of a copy

of the album. i doubt it's available on CD

anywhere. if anyone knows that it is, please

tell us !!! :O) great music. cheers.

This song popped into my head today and I am so excited to find the video here!!! This was one of my favourite songs when I was in high school in the 80's and I still love it!! Thanks for posting this New Wave gem!

I used to have this single. Loved the other side too! Wish the quality was better cause the record was recorded well.

Recorded this off the radio in England many years ago: very bad quality, couldn't make out the title. Thanks to google, searched the lyrics and found it. Cheers for the upload, poptastic!

[jimspoonable]

easily one of the best 80's tracks ever.it should be re-released cos no doubt it would be a stick-on no.1,so lets start a petition........... hey it worked for that crap song from rage against the machine!!! c'mon true 80's lovers whaddya say?????

I converted my 12" of this yesterday. It still remains one of my favourites after all these years.

I saw this on a local video show way back when. I love it! Thank you. =)

Just thrown away the 7" single today whilst clearing out a load of garbage - thought I'd do a search and see what masterpiece I'd destroyed...

...not a great loss!

Ohhhh the memories. I am glad there are people out there with great taste in music. I don't remember how many times I sat glued by the stereo with my finger on "pause" waiting so I could record this. I never could find this, I only heard it on the radio. LOVE IT!!!!!
