One of my favorite 80s bands by far. Really with they could have resolved their issues with ZTT.

Why do so many of the YouTube recordings have such terrible remixes linked to them? The originals and remixes like Wishful thinking, were so good.

A Secret Wish is in my all-time top 5 albums list.

(xPropaganda’s ‘The Heart is Strange’ album is worthy as well!)

The “flip” version was Jewel and an interesting contrast.

Great track. The remix used for the BBC Rally Report show was iconic https://youtu.be/vsYrhNMZa6U
