Wall Of Vodoo is do do as far as I am concerned. I dig Wang Chung more. Wang Chang proved that they weren't a one song hit group. They had a lot of pop hits including this one and my personal favorite Dance Hall Days.

Wall of Voodoo were a very fine band who are unfortunately branded as vapid one hit wonders, and Stan Ridgeway went on to have a very credible solo career as well - if he'd had a little more luck/record company support/whatever he could have become a post-punk version of Tom Waits.

Wang-Chung were not too good.
