Yes, a great single from 1978, and not often played much on oldies' radio stations. I was too young to to remember it at the time, but I do recall looking for it at a record fair in the midlands around the early '90s - a time when I was trying to collect as many chart singles from the past as I could! Thanks for posting the clip, Steve Vienna

One of the projects of songwriter-performer Kenny Young, who amongst others had been a driving force for Clodagh Rogers and Noosha Fox previously.

Loved it, remember it well, was a hit in about March 78, I would have been in th upper sixth at school, not long before doing my a levels. Yello dog did one more, which was a bit similar but not as good, and didn't do much, then they disappeared, called wait until midnight I think

Yes it was, and it got a TOTP appearance, but didn't chart highly.

Not familiar with the song but my first thought was it sounds like 'Come Up And See Me' by Steve Harley.
