Anyone else remember this 1983 hit? It peaked at #4 on R&R, #5 on Billboard. I like it a lot. It seems the kind of song that you either love or hate.

It's pretty good... and I swear a lot of these weird-named groups are always destined to be one-hit wonders.

Definitely love this song, kinda Duran x2 lite. Limahl, the lead vocalist, also had a catchy Euro-pop dance song with the theme to "The Neverending Story."
Too shy, shyyyy, hush hush eye to eye.

Reminds me of when Rick Dees was doing a list of the worst names in music. Others he mentioned were Yaki-Da and I think the Goo Goo Dolls.

Wow! Thanks for this topic! I had always liked this song but had no idea what in the world it was. It's now officially downloaded for my mp3 collection. What can I say other than I LOVE THE 80'S.

LOL I really hate this song. VH1 first brought it to me with their 1-hit Wonder of the 80s special, so I guess they're to blame.

It should be cheesy trash, and clearly there are a lot of people who think it is, but it's so well produced and catchy that I can't help but love it!
