I use to play this in a band back in the 80s -90s and every time we played it, people went nuts. Many times people would ask me WHO SANG THAT SONG.....?
The Alarm.....great band and always a pleasure to play drums too. Thanks for such a catchy tune.
They also recorded this song in Welsh. I only heard that on the radio when I was visiting LA, on KROQ. I already knew the song and liked it, and it took me a few hearings to comprehend that this was a version in another language.
I wish the full length 5 min 30 sec version from the 1989 Change album is here but I'll settle for the 45 version b/c it's the only studio version here at YT.
