    My favourite Hue and Cry song. Can’t believe didn’t crack the UK top 40. Criminal.

    Really terrific music - wonderful melodies, great harmonies, funky backing and of course Pat Kane's superb vocals. This is pop music at its very best.

    This video was recorded at the North terminal baggage area at Gatwick during its construction. I was up in the service area high up in the ceiling watching it being made. The music was loud and blew me away. I've been a Hue and Cry fan ever since. Great band.

    I read somewhere that Patrick Kane has cited Sinatra as a big influence on his singing. And that instantly made sense to me, you can hear the precision of Sinatra right in this song. No mucking about, every note is there for a reason. Awesome!

    • @SmartRobot-wc2fb
      @SmartRobot-wc2fb Місяць тому

      @genglemt: I started revisiting their back catalog and was stunned this song didn't manage to hit higher in the charts elsewhere back then. It's such a great song and vocal performance ever by someone in Pop music. After 2 or 3 listens it gets really addictive.

    This song has been stuck with me for the past year and I'm still watching the vid for xth time now. Absolutely brilliant and dirty clean. Had I seen and heard this vid at the time, I think I would have matured overnight. My first introduction to HnC was LFL days. Somehow I feel cheated not hearing this tune back when it was first released.. Thanks for sharing this awesome tune and vid as it was gone missing on YT for a while...

      @@williammain4769 Danny Wilson were Scottish, if not Glaswegian. Check out Mary's Prayer by them.
      Not recommended, however, are Wet Wet Wet who hailed from nearby Clydebank at about roughly the same time as Hue & Cry. Their first single, Wishing I Was Lucky, was alright and has probably aged quite well but unlike Hue & Cry, Wet Wet Wet were about as socially aware as the Teletubbies and quickly became a housewives' daytime radio favourite. Lloyd Cole and The Commotions had a good couple of early albums/singles, though. Perfect Skin was a good song of theirs!

    @JohnnyContagious Glad you have taken a 'balanced view' here Johnny! Yes they did produce a couple of less than accessible albums but Bitter Sweet (1989) was a great set of songs and they have now reprised the format and given us a great new album. Listen to it and you might change your mind about them!
