Going through a box of seven's from my shed and this was in the box I picked up, some how I can remember getting into these guys through my love to, The style council,, brilliant 👍👍👍
Julie Hadwen was so hot back then,and she had the voice to go with the looks. Why this song wasn't a hit is beyond me,the BSA should've been a household name.
Shepherd's Bush Green 1985. A great song, a talented band and Julie Hadwen has a tremendous voice- it is a shame they did not enjoy further success. Arguably, they did not have any other songs of the calibre of This house is ( where your love stands) and this wonderful single. The footage of the homeless people on the green is moving- I wonder what became of them. Each one somebody's son or daughter. I used to work down the road from there in White City and knew the area well. I can still remember talking to homeless people on the green in 1995 when I was living down Wood Lane; I do not think we should ever walk on by from our fellow citizens. Shepherd's Bush had an edge to it, especially at night but I remember it well.
That's great. I absolutely love this song and their big hit This House Is Where Your Love Stands as well as some of the other tracks on their album. I am 52 and still love the eighties and think it remains a shame BSA did not go on to further success. Julie Hadwen's voice is excellent. I often watch the TOTP performance and it is clear the band give it their all, making the most of their moment. I sometimes wonder what became of bands who experienced success and then it faded away. I hope your uncle is doing well and proud of his musical accomplishments with BSA from a time that now seems so long ago but lives on due to the quality and innovation of so much of the music. Please pass on my best wishes to your uncle.
Thank you so much before they were big sound authority in the early days around 1978 they were called the directions a mod band there best hits were 3 bands tonight and 9n the train 🚉 with my girl my uncle had big raw witn thr management in 1981 he left the band they spilt up I'm 1982 the management wonted them to be a new romantics band like Duran Duran thats why my uncle left and in 1984 big sound authority was formed and Julie had the voice ever like Amy Winehouse
@@trevorwilliams7279 Interesting. What did he do after BSA split up and did he remain in the music industry? No need to say if you do not wish to, I understand.
@@eightiesmusic1984 after they spilt up half the band reformed as life unlimited had a few gigs between 1989 till 1990 time I saw them at mean fiddler harlesden after that lead singer Paul burke done his own thing
@@trevorwilliams7279 I see. The lead singer seemed to have been in charge or the driving force behind the direction of the band. I read somewhere that Julie Hadwen said your uncle and the drummer had both been very supportive to her over the years since the end of the band or words to this effect.

“Excuse me please” (?)
@@eightiesmusic1984 I might be missing the subtlety of your joke there but Excuse Me Please is maybe another good track by them ?
@@eightiesmusic1984 Not my comment was just trying to help
Saw this band live in Brighton totally amazing still love them!
Thank you for posting this. Loved this group so much when I was a teen. They deserved far more success than they had. This is a lovely single.

my uncle Martin Wilson was the bass player
