Outstanding. I've been looking for this track for ages. One of those tunes I remember from Swap Shop and a music review of the year, been bugging me for ages. Thank God for Youtube. Thanks for posting mate!.

I can't believe this is on youtube! My dad wrote this song and was the band's manager! I just showed him the vid and he got all nostalgic! Fantastic!

As a bloke nearing his 50's I can not believe I have found this tune on YT. I have searched google, itunes and practically everywhere for years to get a version. It was my favourite tune as a young soldier in the early 80's. I am absolutely chuffed to bits. Now how do I get it from here onto my ipod?

@simplyeightiesdotcom ...hee hee,youre not gonna believe this but i swear i wanted it on cassette but the record shop at the time only had it on LP.I still have it but the last time i played it back in 1997 because i wanted to hear Juice Newton[correct?]-angle of the morning and needle got stuck in the groove half way through the song;but id say if i gave it a good cleaning and played it on a good solid turntable,it would play fine.there were amazing incredible tracks on there!take care,Denis.

@fergusil Wow! I had that album, too! On cassette, unfortunately, so can't play it now as it's kind of faded :(

It's now Futuresville! It's still joyous though!

absolutely outstanding! i remember walking into a record shop with the sole purpose of buying this song in 1982. and i did! loved it then and love it now. been looking for it again for years and years - believe me i am so happy now! Great to read comments from various band members and their rellys - you MUST reform and stick it to Radio 1 !!!!!! Thank you.

Wow, reading the comments all the members (or their offspring) of the band have posted here!. Great stuff, I loved this tune back in the day, put buggles to shame. This really needs to go on Itunes.....

I can't help loving 80s music videos when I see this one...So funny, so colorful! I'm sure they really had fun back then lol

I absolutely love it! Thanks for posting!
