Love, Love, LOVE this track!
This and the Wembley Mix are great.

If you like Bros, check out the swing mix of Chocolate Box on YouTube.

Another great if underrated Bros tune is Madly in Love.

Strange that I haven´t got the faintest memory of this song. I loved their first album “Push” which deserves a deluxe re-release if you ask me. Five great singles from that. The other two albums I completely missed somehow. “Too much” is a great song with a good b-side. Love the 12″ remix, too. Thank you, Paul, for bringing this to my attention.

Have a great weekend.

Cheers Paul
