I like the video as it's so early 80's, yet it's not dark like some new wave/punk/rock videos that used to be popular around that time. It's has that TV look. And the song itself is quite laid-back, makes you feel calm. It transports you right back to a summer midday in the early 80's. :)

Probably not - enough people liked it back then to make it a rare top ten British hit for her...

One of the last great Bernard Edwards/Nile Rogers 'Chic'-type collaborations...

I'm not crazy about it, but it is a fun dance song.

It was on the soundtrack of a really crappy movie: Soup For One.

Her songs from Coming Around Again were better.
