Haven't heard it for aaaaaages!.Don't think Absolute 80's will play that one anytime soon!.
I bought 'The Crunch' by the same band.Came on TOTP dressed in black plastic bags.
I loved the 80's and the music.Driving round in my MK1 Golf GTI listening to OMD and the likes.Happy days!.

great track. i still play the 12" from time to time

how about

timex social club - rumours

Aztec camera - somwhere in my heart

"Since Yesterday" by Strawberry Switchblade. In fact, anything by them,

That still gets played a lot, no way has it been forgotten.

All I Need Is Everything is more a hidden gem, wasn't even a big hit at the time.

Classic by Adrian Gurvitz

Hey Matthew - Karel Fialka
Grimly Fiendish - The Damned
Brilliant Mind - Furniture
Election Day - Arcadia
Arizona Sky - China Crisis
Icing on the Cake - Stephen 'Tin Tin' Duffy
All Fall Down - Ultravox
Change His Ways - Robert Palmer
Driving Away From Home - It's Immaterial
This Corrosion - The Sisters of Mercy

Yes! And a classic it was, as well! Wonderful song!

Classic-Adrian Gurvitz

And, going up-tempo, somewhat, this great track, which had so much power and energy:

Obsession-Animotion

Martha & The Muffins - Echo Beach

The 80s were a really shitty time in the country, yet Britain produce the best music. 80s British music is the best, way ahead of anything out of America.

Icicle Works - Love Is A Wonderful Colour
Fiction Factory - Feels Like Heaven
Howard Jones - Hide and Seek
Wah - Come Back
Wylie - Sinful
New Musik - Living By Numbers
Random Hold - Avalanche
Squares - Airebeat (doubt anyone out of Yorkshire would know this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESOabuupG-A damn I just saw it's 1979, oh well, nearly)

Coldcut - Doctorin The House was great in the late 80s. Loads of great Scottish bands as well like Big Dish and Love and Money.

And World of Water.

Swansway - Soul Train

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1bUyLs6OJc

Cock Robin - The Promise You Made

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pk3A_QSINI&ob=av2e

Big Sound Authority - This House (Is Where Your Love Stands)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLyehHpPUL0

Icicle Works - Whisper To A Scream (Birds Fly)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVQCpI4GbKQ

Propaganda - Duel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLhYxLE8uCA

'Love Is Contaaaaaaaaaaaaagious'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ume14YVqNxk

Two songs that weren't hits and aren't heard very often

Jesse Rae - "Over the sea"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOad0FU9zF8
(Are those the Twin towers of New York at 1:18 in the video?)

Sal Solo "Music and You"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpB6_VncifY

Both 1985 I think.

Call Me- Go West.

Just What I Always Wanted and Cry Me A River-Mari Wilson

Also seen in 'So Far Away' by Dire Straits, and Tina Turner's 'What's Love Got To Do With It'. Very sad.

She was such a great singer, I don't know why she did the beehive gimmick because it took focus away from what a great singer she was. Wonder whatever happened to her?

(off to google...)

Madonna- Angel
Kate Bush- Army Dreamers

think Mari's a jazz singer now.IIRC Michelle Collins was one of her backing singers The Wilsations in her pre EE days.
Another gem-Broken Land by The Adventures

The word 'forgotten' is clearly confusing some posters.

Kate Bush - Breathing (1980)

Department S - Is Vic There? (1981)

Thompson Twins - Love on your side (1983)

PiL - Flowers of Romance (1981)

Sigue Sigue Sputnik - Love Missile Fi-11

Great record.

Heart and Soul by T'Pau is always overshadowed by China In Your Hand.
