It's 35. Its sound is timeless.

The band's chief songwriter and guitarist Gary Kemp cited this as one of his favorites.

Wow 35 years! These timeless gems are becoming rare.

I have this song in a 80s playlist. I'm so glad I grew up when these songs were being released

Love it, remember it as a child and its in my hot 1983 song list.

You are all missing one other - late 1982's Communication, it is about 80s synth as it gets. Plus you know the Kemp brothers acted and very well as the Krays in a 1990 TV movie.

Jhonny Hates Jazz too.
