@ThieveryCorps they were with jolley/swain a few years before SAW, however they did continue to write there own stuff.

@JosephKuby probably because as a band/group/singer becomes more succesful, they bring in the expensive producers and can hire better studios, etc

I start learning Bananarama starting from this 12" when i was just in Form 1 and start loving them all the ways. HK

@oclandestin, I've often found a similar progress with rock bands - the earlier stuff is more raw whereas each album becomes more polished.

I think Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk,his father co-wrote this song.His name is Daniel Vangarde.I think.

@goblinb It was released in 1981 on the Demon/Deram record label catalogue number DMX 446. I bought the 12" in version back then from "Bruce's Record Shop" on Princess St Edinburgh for the princely sum of 79p... :)

When did this come out? It seems from what I've read on here that it was in the early 80's.

The original (almost) always sounds better, because it is better. The point is that Bananarama were eclectic and brave enough to cover this song at the time when that kind of music did not have a lot of commercial appeal and in the process exposed a lots of then-kids to this classic tune. In comparison, it is simply unfathomable that a popster today do anything remotely as risky as this.
