80s pop classic of the day: "Promises,Promises" by Naked Eyes (1983) Gotta love this catchy,infectious track...a big hit in the summer of '83

That was a great 80's song. Were they a one hit wonder, or did they have other singles? "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

One of my favorite 80's tunes!!!! They also had a hit with their cover of Burt Bacharach's song, "(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me", and "When The Lights Go Out".....one half of the duo, Pete Byrne, did session work, including background vocals on Stevie Wonder's hit, "Part-Time Lover" ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

Great song. I just recently bought it a few months ago on a compilation. Andy is a four letter word. | |

When I hear this song,it take me back to a fun,more exciting time for pop music.1983 is one of the greatest years for pop music...so many catchy,infectious tunes that came out that year! Too bad that things have really gone downhill | |

The only other song that I know by them is "Always Something There To Remind Me" That's a cool song too! | |

Oh Yeah, of course I know "Always Something There To Remind Me." I didn't know it was a cover tho. Now I'm curious about the original version.

Yeah, it was cool. But any song that bites off of the sounds of Chic, is going to sound cool SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."
