We're on Holiday, We're From America...

At least I think that's the name of the song. I think it was recorded in 1984. You can listen to the first 25 seconds here:

Can anyone identify this?

Thanks!

Thanks. Allmusic.com says the Proclaimers didn't record until 1986. I know this song wasn't recorded after 1984.

This is the group Nude Ants, from their 1983 EP Access. The track is called America (We're on Holiday). Great EP on New Deal Records. Not sure what else they put out. I have this EP and another EP from 1982 called Search For Tornado Victims. Both excellent.

Thank you so, so much. This was the last unidentified track I had from a mix tape I made in 1984 and it has been driving me nuts for years as I tried to figure out who recorded it.
