Subject: help finding a song

Written By: nicole on 4/11/2000 at 2:16 a.m.

I need help finding who sings a certain. Im sorry but i only remember a few words to the song. I remember seeing this video on Mtv during the time between 1983-1985 ....it was by a british group i believe....the video showed 1 girl with big blonde, teased hair...in black and this tall bald guy in black leather......they were one hit wonders i think.....and the video was shown only a few times but the song was very catchy and have beenn trying to find who sings it since then.....part of the lyrics were....."something something something.......is not so far away....I dont know why we dont go........." (and the bald guy in a deep base voice sings ) "on a holi-holi-holiday" ....... its pretty broken up buts its all i can remember...so if anyone can give me a slightest clue that would be great!!!!

thanks!

OK...the name of the song is "Holiday" I THINK, someone may have to correct me on this the name of the group is "the other ones" I could be way off but I know someone asked this before so I am sure someone can correct me if i am wrong.

I want to say thank you to you guys! I read this question last night, and knowing the song, I was beating myself up trying to remember! I searched the net and found that 'The Other Ones' sang a song called "Holiday"--but after looking them up everywhere I couldn't find lyrics or sound files ANYWHERE to verify it! So THANK YOU from me too!! :)
