Subject: I NEED HELP PLEASE...ANYONE????

Written By: KYM on 06/03/13 at 7:53 pm


I've been wracking my brain for months now, trying to remember a cool band from the 80's.  They didn't have any hits here in US, there was a guy/girl singing, New Wave, maybe 2 albums, all the songs were good, even hearing them for the first time.  I think their name only had 2 words;e.g., The Knack, The Cure,etc...It was something like No Regrets, No Return..????  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!! :D

They came to my mind as well (but because they were 70's , I didn't mention them). That girl was built! ::)

Even though I'm going on phonetics, I could be way off base, but Animotion was a new wave band with a girl and guy singing, and the name sounds like "No Motion", but they had at least one hit: "Obsession" off their first album (which was called something like "The Art of Language"), followed by "Room to Move" on their poppier self-titled sophomore release.
