    Yep remember them both well

    Was never a massive fan of Flock Of Seagulls though. I used to really like the Nu Romantic Stuff.

    Are you sure this thread isnt here just to expose my age and that I'm an 80's kid at heart?!

    TBH,I heard the previous song much later. The one you mentioned used to be on radio so I remember it.

    However,with the power of YouTube we can rediscover a lot of these old songs!!
