Fun fact. In the US Billboard Hot 100, this one-hit wonder of Eddy Grant peaked at #2 losing to two #1 songs which were "Flashdance...What A Feeling" by Irene Cara and "Every Breathe You Take" by The Police. On July 9, 1983, after 6 weeks at #1, "Flashdance...What A Feeling drops two notches to #3 as "Every Breath You Take climbs two notches to top the Billboard Hot 100 preventing this song to top it all off.

I remember when it was just starting to get play. It was spring 1982, and I was on a choir tour in Detroit. My friend and I were listening to an FM station one evening, and they announced a new song just hitting the airwaves. After a few bars, we stood up and started dancing. Maren and I loved it! A few months later, the airplay was easily nationwide. I just played it here in the post acute center I'm in to feel stress after sepsis. Ouch.

Late 70's to mid 80's Brixton was pure fire. The place was so alive. Lambeth council killed the place. Still such happy memories of the joint and the years I lived there.
