You’re welcome Da’Ron 🙂
This was to be the 3rd single from ‘Truthdare Doubledare’ but was pulled at the last minute, even after the promos had been sent out…and i believe artwork completed for the sleeve?
Jon had left by this point.
I think it’s time for Larry, Steve, and Jimmy to reunite….and do a NEW LP???
I never knew this existed. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah it’s a rare one VanceMan. Enjoy!
I’m the same as VanceMan, I had no idea this was floating about in music space. Too bad they didn’t follow up with Jon Foster as a vocalist.
hit that perfect hit dj!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanx a lot!!!!!!!
greetings from Greece!!!!!
Greetings Giorgios-Greece it’s been a while. Nice to see you 🙂
Thanks Paul. This is great .
You’re welcome Omar 🙂
Who doesn’t love the Bronski Beat!
Thanks. 🙂
Good to see you Jermajesty it’s been a while 🙂
Hehe… I still visit every day, don’t worry. 🙂
Agreed! I enjoy everything Bronski Beat has put out, even through the lineup changes, and that is saying a lot. More often than not, after losing a lead singer it is tough for a band to find success, but all three vocalists were great. The band put out good stuff every time.
THIS.IS.AWESOME! Thank you SO much.
You’re welcome Conner. Enjoy my friend 🙂
I’ve listened to it about 10 times on my headset at work. I AM enjoying it.
Great glad to hear it 🙂
Paul,
i´m going crazy. I´m looking for this for Ages.
THANKS SO MUCH !!!!
Marko
You’re very welcome Marko 🙂
