i remember this from the 80's, i liked the song & it was probably one of the few american 'new wave' bands to have some success in the uk?.. don't remember anything else from them though...

lol i love all the 80's nostalgia, the cable/fairisle jumpers & coiffered hairdos.. hairspray overload

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Ive been into Wang Chung since the 80's. They didn't have a bunch of hits but the ones they did have were pretty huge(in america). A greatest hits CD from them would be a good buy.

When they released their first album(1981) they were known as Haung Chung.

I Never Wanted to Love You In a Half Harted Way(from the album Haung Chung)

Wait. This song was also in the movie To Live and Die in LA.
