Katrina And The Waves – Do You Want Crying (UK 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

Written by keyboardist Vince de la Cruz “Do You Want Crying” was the foolow-up single to “Walking On Sunshine” and became a top 40 US hit reaching No. 37 in the late summer of 1985. The single also charted in the UK at No.96 and Canada at No.29.

This song has pretty much been over shadowed by “Walking On Sunshine” but in my opinion it is a great 80’s pop song that deserves to be revisited again.
