Ashes to Ashes tune

So what was that last tune in tonight's episode?

Something about "like the wind..."

I sort of recognise it and the earworm is driving me nuts.

 

Japan

Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind
- From 'Ghosts' on the Tin Drum album.

Japan (I think). I used to like them a lot..

Phil

 

You should never go back:

 

Sounds fucking awful.

 

There are three there that I quite like but that's only a 33.3% hit
rate.

 

I actually have three of them (Soft Cell, The Skids, The Beat). I
suspect they may not be the three you like.

 

The Skids, The Stranglers & Japan.

 

Snap. I may have Roxy Music on vinyl as well.

I had a backstage pass plus 1 to the Beat's concert in Nottingham
earlier this month (from the same chap who was involved with the Crass
gig) and completely forgot about it. I'm still mildly irritated by
this.

 

<Wibbly-wobbly mode>

Still sounds good. Shame about the hairstyles..

</WWM>

Must buy the album on iTunes if it's there..

Phil.

 

I dunno. Some of it is quite listenable. The last 3 songs anyway.

Phil.

 

You'll not be amazed to know I disagree. Not sure I've got The Skids
track but I certainly have all of the others either on vinyl or CD.

Paul C via Google.

 

I think (hope) that I've still got all of the above, barring Kim
Wilde, on tape or vinyl. Oh, and possibly the Beat.

Aye. Or in my case (LP *long* since lost) buy it again.

by fools

Give me Daphne & Celeste any day.

 

26 years of my life have just disappeared, are you sure it's not still
1982 ?

I can't find the old grey whistle test on any of the tv listings...

 

Ace secured a place in history by writing:

I have all of them on vinyl, barring Kim Wilde. I've also seen 7 of them
performed live, 3 times in the case of Ghosts. And I modelled myself on
David Sylvian during my spotty, self-delusional, my-twelve-pleats-and-a-
bottle-of-hydrogen-peroxide-might-get-me-a-shag years.
