Flash and the Pan

[randy]

Please let me know if I am alone in thinking that Flash and the Pan (whom I love) released as singles their lamest songs? ( except for Hey St Peter and Down Among The Dead Men ) Lame songs such as "Ayla" , "Waiting For a Train" , "Media Man" are the reasons I feel they were not as popular as they deserved to be. I would think songs like "Up Against The Wall" , "Saviour Man" , "Psychos On The Street" , and "Lights in the Night" would have been better choices , just to name a few.

Would have to somewhat agree with ya Randy...with the exception of Waiting for a Train. I always thought it had a really cool, kinda Lou Reed vibe to it. It's just not as instantly catchy as some of their other popular songs.

Cheers, Mike

There definitely were superior album tracks that never became singles ... I agree with "Lights in the Night". IMO, even worse singles (or songs included on the "Hits Collection") are "Something About You" (yuck!) and "Where Were You" (an embarrassing fies

I always liked these guys but thought their last cd , Burning Up The Night was just plain awful. Seems like they forgot what good music was.

Have to agree with Lights In The Night--great song!! Also really liked She Makes Her Own Cross and California.

"Waiting For a Train" was a big hit over here, and their collection just shows how solid they were.
