I bought this on 12" when it came out.
"Queen Of No Heart" is on the B side, another banger with some Very Eighties drums.

@dec23k @miblo Excellent. It is very 80s, but also extremely weird in a way I wasn't expecting. I read as well that they were briefly on U2's imprint, or is the internet lying to me again?

@dec23k @RobertaFidora Wow, what, 1986?! I've been listening to it under the impression of it being current, with maybe something of a throwback aesthetic. Puts a whole new complexion on it being rooted in the bona fide 80s.

@miblo @dec23k Ooh, quite a lot of Longpigs on there too. Haven’t seen them mentioned anywhere in a while! Must dig out my CD from the cupboard of chaos…

I know, right? Why wasn’t this song absolutely massive in the 80s?!

@RobertaFidora @dec23k Honestly, I'm utterly nonplussed right now!
