Before Curve... Toni Halliday was a decidedly un-goth and un-shoegaze 80s pop star and this great single is a highlight of her pre-noise career. Late 80s pop with plenty of synths and choppy guitar riffs. You get the title track twice on this 12" version, a harder extended synthy "Euro-tech" remix by Alan Wilder and the 7" version.
The remix is great fun actually with plenty of gasps and bumps moving into synth and guitar soundscapes. Toni never made it as a pop star though but luckily something else was about to happen.
