I'm positive I have not seen this thread opened before. This was a BIG hit back home in 1986 (2 weeks at #1). In their home country, UK, it reached #20. It was New Wave band Sigue Sigue Sputnik's second single, although their Giorgio Moroder-penned album "Flaunt It" was released right after this song. Here is the video, which uses a shorter version than the one popular back home VERY 80s in make-up, attitude and costumes this might be better shown in this live performance Interestingly, according to Wikipedia, the band split up in July 1989, with Tony James (creator and bassist) joining The Sisters of Mercy later that year and Chris Kavanagh (drummer) going to Big Audio Dynamite II joining former The Clash singer Mick Jones.
