    Dream Academy - Life In A Northern Town

    Its funny how you can come across a song which you don't know on the face of it, but do. I think it is the chorus:

    I remember this song well from my childhood in the 80's, it sticks in my memory. Managed to source it on CD a few years back, one of my all time favourite songs.

    I think I was in Primary 1 or 2 when he was singing about the green door, I seem to remember being very confused as I thought Elvis, him and Superman were all clones or from the same dimension.

    It was also the first lp , record I saw as my parents did not have a record player, where music tapes even around them - dont remember ..

    Any one remember this show ??

    It scared the **** out of me.. along with others like Box of Delights..
