Is it Danielle Dax, or from her former group "the lemon kittens"? at least the chorus sounds remarkably like her?

Definately not Danielle Dax.

I have no clue either. I will admit it is a great tune though. If anyone finds out please let me know.

How about this?

The Times
Up Against It
LP Artpop! (ART 16) 1986
Up Against It / Last Tango For One / Boys About Town / Garden In The Moonlight (Love theme for McTurk and Rowena) / WPC Boon / Most Modern Woman In The World / Jack's Revolution / Ladies Of The Cause / Mutiny In The British Empire / Escape! / She's A Professional / It's Cabaret Time! / The War / [8D]The Wedding Song[8D]

"The following year, Ball and Tony Conway of Mood Six wrote and attempted to mount a one-act theatrical condensation of Up Against It; in 1985, they co-directed a complete stage production of Orton's script, incorporating original songs Ball had written for it. Those were then issued as Up Against It, a studio LP of discrete power pop tunes that sound very noticeably like various well-known artists, including the Jam, Beatles and Bowie. As the songs are linked in a narrative logic that wants for an explanatory script, it's an okay album but not one of the Times' best. (Other than Ball's claim that Joseph Papp's people pinched the idea from him, this project is musically and practically unrelated to the subsequent off-Broadway musical of the same name, scored by Todd Rundgren.)"

Men without hats?

by **pop80s** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 5:28 pm

I've contacted with the webmaster of the unofficial Television Personalities website:

http://www.televisionpersonalities.co.uk

He has a The Times section in:

http://www.televisionpersonalities.co.u ... /times.htm

He says that this wanted song is not a The Times or related band song.

The song with the lyrics "Oh what went wrong with the wedding song" is driving me nuts. Something in my head is telling me it could be "Lawn Chairs" by Our Daughter's Wedding. Released around 1980 then re-released again a few years later. I believe it was released as a promo b/w "Beat City" by The Flowerpot Men on a limited edition vinyl. ODW records can be found on eBay.
