    It's funny really.. the older I get (mid-40s now), the more I miss the 80s.. the music, the TV and movies. No social media, no hysteria over the latest "trending/viral" headline, and people just got on with things and actually interacted more. I love that Now 80s channel on Sky/Freesat UK. Music like this played 24/7

Beautiful song, like something from a really good Disney or magical kids adventure film, and the video is lovely, very Alice in Wonderland and like a kids book illustrations coming to life.

      Now you'd know more than me here if you're researching it, but I have a few theories, one is that the mainstream U.S. record industry didn't want to invest in a band who to them were just U.K. copycats of 'the real thing', I can see their point. On the surface that's all they are but they're actually a great example of the U.K. 'returning the serve', taking something American and sending it back over with something added or changed from their own culture, even if it's just a different attitude. RnB in particular has a long, rich history of the two countries trading vibe. The other thing is I've noticed Five Star get a lot of youtube love and nostalgia from NYC, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia, Boston, how they were big on the black and hispanic radio stations and you'd hear them on the street, out of beatboxes. I wasn't expecting that at all because in Ireland and England they were looked down on by a snobby music press as 'manufactured teeny pop'. I realise that in those urban areas of American, they're seen in the same light as say Lisa Lisa And The Cult Jam. . So they were not only too British but too 'urban' to be marketed as mainstream (consider that at exactly this time Clive Davis was literally bleaching Whitney, in his plan to make her America's new singing sweetheart). Basically racism.

    Today is the first time I've heard of this song. My wife and I were on the road and this played on the radio, I'm usually very knowledgeable about songs compared to her and I was gladly surprised she knows this song while I've never heard of it before. She doesn't know the song title, good thing she knows the lyrics and I Googled and that's why I'm here. I love it, it's my new favorite.
