I love this song, though it scares the hell out of me and that synth line is plain creepy. It's quite different from "Kids In America" and other more cheerful singles she has released over the years, but still this is one of my favourites from her. The video fits the atmosphere pretty well. UK peaks: 12 in November 1981.

This was OK, but nothing special. I don't think it would have charted well in the US.

I love this. 80s songs sometimes had such interesting lyrics.

She has some truly tacky videos to her name.

I like this. Definitely one of her best. The parent album Select is my favorite LP from her.

Pretty funny you thought it was creepy because it was played during the father’s death in “Strangers: Prey At Night.” Surprised to see a thread on this already but I’m glad someone else remembers it.

This still holds up, and doesn't sound as dated as earlier.
