Only just stumbled across this track recently..2023!!...It's lovely..it's wonderful..it is truly China Crisis, with their unmatchable and unparalleled ability to produce such wonderful melodic keyboard compositions. It is indeed the same keyboard sound as used for Wishful Thinking, but that is not a good enough excuse for hiding this beautiful song away. Long live China Crisis....
i have never heard track until last night (13th Dec 2019) at the Cavern Xmas show; 34 years is not too late to hear another brilliant CC tune !!!!!!!!!!
Whoa I've never heard this before and I thought I knew all their material. I'm going to see them tonight in Dublin and CAN'T WAIT!!!! Listening to them since 1986 and haven't grown tired of their sound.
Should release it now. I had it on the deluxe edition of Flaunt but just saw them do it live Saturday in Glasgow. Great song - can't believe it was dropped.
They played this last night at their gig. Gary explained that this track was recorded as part of their sessions for WWF&S album. However, the band decided it was too similar to Wishful Thinking & mulled over which track to drop from the album. In hindsight, they feel they probably should have included it & used it as the follow up single to WT, rather than Hanna Hanna, which couldn't have been more different.
Why can't they just put a bonus CD together collecting ALL their hard-to-get tracks not put on original albums, not least as this one is actually a rare song, and not a bleeding instrumental, which seem to comprise most of their B-sides set.

The most underrated and hardest working band I have ever known. True gentlemen and loved by their fans. Gary and Eddy take a bow.
Absolutely gorgeous !!!! A hidden gem
Still a top choon from one of the best 80s underated bands ever
Pięknie 😊😊😊

i am 65 years old and it never too late
Whats with the sour off key bass notes during the bridge?
China Crisis had offkey singers so why not have offkey bass also? Lol
Hermosa canción. Divina
OMG, this is excellent! It reminds me a little bit of Wishful thinking. Thanks for posting it!
Love this 1 released on the 12" limited edition of "Black Man Ray"
a gem indeed
It is a pleasure to listen to this beautiful relaxing song.. a gem indeed (As

Magical... but yes, it sounds like it comes from the 1983 'Working With Fire and Steel' sessions --- and should've been on there!
I remember reading somewhere that this was supposed to be apart of WWFAS, but was dropped for whatever reason.
whats the point writing a great song that hardly anybody has heard, they should have put this on the flaunt album
El millor grup musical de l'história amb diferencia
