A cover version? Of The Fixx? If so, it could be Gene Loves Jezebel from the "The Fixx: An Electronic Tribute" comp. or Beauty from the "Newer Wave" comp.

If it's not a cover, I don't know where you're from but an Albany, NY band called The Dronez had a song in '81 called "Red Skies" that was played a lot locally. This is the longest of longshots but here it is:

If anyone listens to this and can figure out what the Hell he's singing in the chorus, please let me know.

It is the Fixx. Thanks you both for the help. It was eating away at me & making my brain hurt trying to figure it out. Best Regards [;)]
