Built like an angel, six feet tall?

...that's one of the lines I can recall.

The other two lines I can remember ...

I don't know where to begin, living in sin
Take an independent point of view

male vocalist, early eighties I think...

I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend!

That's "Get The Message" by Electronic.

The Damned fucking rock by the way.

[Rat_Scabies]

thanks for the "message"!

You have "damned" good taste in music.

Actually it's 1990.

I've got it if you want it.

[Rat_Scabies]

Thank you Jesus, I had no trouble downloading it.
Did electronic do anything else worthy of mention?

[hexicon]

I liked "Disappointed."

[geoffolehane]

"Get the Message" and "Getting Away With It" were both Top 40 hits in the US. "Getting Away With It" was the bigger hit I think.

[MARV]

Their first two albums are worth buying if you liked Get The Message and want to get more into them. Every song is a keeper. And their last one, Twisted Tenderness is an engineering/production marvel with killer songs to boot. Bernard Sumner on the vocals

[Arcadia]

Marv summed it up well, as usual, but don't overlook Hex's post about "Disappointed". It's a killer track.

BTW - Every time I see your nickname, I get a serious itch for some Damned!!! It's contagious like yawning I think!
