A Flock Of Seagulls - Some Dreams (Official Video)

Returning with the first album of new material since 1995, A Flock of Seagulls present their brand new track 'Some Dreams'. The band led by Mike Score continue to innovate and inspire. 'Some Dreams' features their signature synth sounds blended perfectly with driving guitars and high energy rhythms. The single comes with 5 versions, the two extended versions strech and elongate the sounds in all the right places. A treat for those who love their classic 80s extended versions. Two instrumental versions are also included. The new Flock of Seagulls album is due in 2025. Thirty years in the making.
The main version of the track features on CD1 of the Orchestral 80's CD Album. You can also find an exclusive and limited 'Orchestral Exploration Version' of Some Dreams on CD3 of the Limited Edition box set. This is limited to 300 copies. Both available at www.augustday.net

History:
A Flock Of Seagulls may well be known for their bizarrely teased haircuts as much as their hit single "I Ran". A Flock Of Seagulls were one of prime movers in the 80's new wave era. Growing out of the synth-heavy and ruthlessly stylish new romantic movement. Hairdresser Mike Score (lead vocals, keyboards) formed A Flock Of Seagulls with his brother Ali (drums) and fellow hairdresser Frank Maudsley (bass) in 1980, adding guitarist Paul Reynolds several months later. Their eponymous debut album appeared in the spring of 1982. "I Ran (So Far Away)" was released as the first single from the album, and MTV quickly picked up on its icily attractive video, which featured long shots of Mike Score and his distinctive, cascading hair. The single climbed into the American Top Ten, taking the album along with it. In the UK, "I Ran" didn't make the Top 40, but "Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You)" reached number ten later that year. Truly part of the fabric of the 80s their music and refernce have featured in TV shows such as Friends, The Wedding Singer, La La Land and many more.

Sound isn't timebound, lots of musical artists still create this sound that began back in the 1980s. "The 80s" isn't a time, it's a vibe, and that vibe is still being created by artists now, even if it is not the top of charts songs. Fresh and beautiful 80s vibe songs are put out into the world by many artists every day, still!

[@miked1869]

The generation before yours were sorry for the "junk" you had to listen to in the eighties. I well remember the music of that time being derided before it became credible in retrospect. I think one's age, and rose-tinted nostalgia, are bigger factors than the objective quality of music being produced in any given decade.

Wow core memory unlocked! This has always been one of my favorite bands. I was just a child, prob 6 or 7 when I saw them live and met the band. My dad booked Flock of Seagulls at GB Reefs in Daytona Beach (Howard Johnson hotel at 600 North) during the Spring Break chaos in the late 80s/90s. They gave me their autographs on a bar napkin and I cherished it. I remember that moment because it was magical. Their performance was a once in a lifetime time experience. I played their record on repeat for years. My autograph was thrown away by my mother who did it to hurt me. It did. My dad has passed in 2009 but Flock of Seagulls is so special to me. I found the contract he had for their gig. Super cool piece. It’s one of the bands that always comes on the radio when I think of my dad and to know the band is still playing and producing music makes my heart flutter. ❤ Thanks for this.
