Little bit of ABC this morning.

I've not played the video and already I've got this, and their other songs, in my head.

Brainworm stuff - but good brainworm stuff.

One of the defining tunes of the '80's, just sums it up right there. For me anyway. One of the top Radio 1 DJ's of the time had this track as the opening tune to their show. Could have been Gary Davies, Simon Mayo. It just lived on and on, as you heard it on a daily basis. I always get ABC and Spandau Ballet mixed up. I for a long time thought SB had done this.

I also get those two mixed up as I thought Gold was ABC 🤣. Cracking track. I feel like it might've been Simon mayo, but I could be wrong. Speaking of radio DJs did you hear Steve Wright passed away ☹️ really sad, absolute voice of a generation.

Yes, very sad to hear of Steve's passing. He was a part of generations of lives, he'll definitely be missed.

The voice is quite similar to David Bowie even the hair cut ...lol..But it s true it s from the same years (Absolute Beginners in that case)

I know the band by name but never heard about it or at least this one

Definitely the sound of that era. Similar to Frankie goes to Hollywood and Duran Duran. The "New Romance" era of the late 80s definitely had a type.
