A Flock Of Seagulls - "Him" (OFFICIAL VIDEO) from the album "Some Dreams" 2024

'Him' is the new single from 80s legends A Flock Of Seagulls. Mike Score pens what is possibly one of his finest ever songs, a forlorn and melancholy pop masterpiece about a doomed love triangle. 'Him' is from their sixth studio album and their first album of new material since 1995. Mike Score proves to us once again that he can deliver well written, hooky, but serious pop music.
Mike Score and A Flock of Seagulls have just finished a North American tour and hit the road again
for extensive dates from Spring onwards.

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.

I'm 60 years old. I know I can't go back. Does anyone miss the 80s like I do?

[@michaelfaulkner1871]

All the damn time.

You should have had swooped up hair in the last scene.

[@DerKlemm-Crafter]

I'm truly amazed, because this song could be straight from the 80s

[@luisf4077]

Wow…this took me back to a very happy time in my life. The world was so much less complicated and enjoyable. Thanks Flock of Seagulls for sticking around and still singing with that signature sound. We may show a little age these days but this is the story of a young heart…ha did you see what I just did.🎉😂 Flock of Seagulls forever!

[@robbieprokop1745]

Yeaaahhh, see that... done right, you did! So did Mike et. al. Our formative musical years never die...🫶🏼

[@franciscocoelhodacosta1261]

A beautiful new song, with a flashback feel. Thank you very much A Flock Of Seagulls.

[@simonezucconi4646]

Always a great voice

[@PeterPump1]

Probably this would have become a hit around 1983. Sweet nostalgia.

[@alphawoolf5981]

You won't remember this, but in the early 90s you played at Club 101 in El Paso, TX. I was there for that show and still have my autographed copy of Story of a Young Heart. You wrote "glad you liked it" on it. One of my favorite possessions. I've loved all your music from the time you began and will love it all until I die.

[@frankthetank5445]

Wow, that sound takes me instantly back to the eighties 😢 music so much better then

[@thadschaeffer2563]

While I've always been a fan of A Flock of Seagulls, listening to this new song was like getting a big hug from my musical history.

[@slobodantanasijevic2652]

Sentimentalna vožnja kroz 80-te. Neverovatno potcenjen bend pokazuje se ovim singlom u punom sjaju. Namerno sam komentar napisao na maternjem jeziku da se ostali potrude da nauče nešto novo❤

Great to hear old bands still honoring what made people listen to them in the first place and not try to become "current" or "modern". The whole new album sounds true to how I remember this band. Very authentic.

[@geetee7154]

Superb song with an 80's vibe, many thanks A Flock of Seagulls 😁👍

[@GreatPlanet-c7o]

My actual favorite band.

[@DarthGem1]

Well, well, well, Amsterdam, who would have thought? Beautiful and fitting to the song!

[@jasonzinschlag3506]

Thank you! I was wondering if it was Amsterdam. The credits at the end confirm it. Also, Spokane, Washington.

[@robbieprokop1745]

Spokane was his audio engineer/studio... interesting to find the places artists end up across their journeys. Did a quick peek at the varying band members across time as it was well-documented that the original members (Ali, Paul, & Frank) never stayed on outside 'reunion' projects, following their initial disbanding in '86. So if Mike's voice retains much of FoS's original sound (his solo.work is cool, too) - their 'identity' (or any band's) doesn't 'feel' the same. Still - hard not to get nostalgic listening to parts of this sound... Will look forward to supporting & listening to the rest if the new album~ Thanks!

[@robbateman7987]

Well written and performed, pop music at is't best, thanks

[@berealsupportive2744]

Awesome buddy, welcome back. I'm glad to see you doing new music and following in the footsteps of Billy Joel who finally put out new music around 30 years later as well. It's quite sad though with how many albums and songs there could have been. None the less you are here doing great. Keep the songs coming. 😊 👍

[@dandysekvonarbeit]

Always amazing

[@bsquared4604]

I love it. Reminds me of Roxy Music. It's feels like early 80s and I love it.

[@islandLycan]

Total Avalon vibe. Love it

[@hawkeyedarrin8463]

Being a 1969 Gen-X kid I grew up with AFOS. The songs I fell in love to, broke up and healed with. I was in a surfing contest in Cocoa Beach, Fl in the 90's and had the great pleasure to meet Mike after a beachside concert there. He was so polite meeting with my girlfriend and me and asking us to sit and chat. Mike, thank you for adding songs to the sountrack of my life. Forever a fan, much love!

[@paullecomtenz]

a true return to form, congrats folks, can't wait to put the new album on heavy rotation this New Zealand summer.
