Anyone help me identify this song from the 80s from the music video?

It's driving me mad...all I can remember is a man in a long raincoat (leather?) walking through a studio singing this song. Know it's a long shot, but hoping someone's memory is better than mine Smile

Is there smoke behind him?

If so, 'Vienna'?

It could be 'Died in your arms tonight' by Cutting Crew

That's exactly what it is Angels - brilliant, thank you! I've been trying to remember for ages!

Woohoo Grin

That was a bit of luck, nearly every 80s video has a bloke wandering about in a long raincoat so we could have been here all night Grin

I know! We all wore long raincoats in the 80s - we looked like we were permanently dressed for torrential downpours Grin

I love the 80s look (apart from the shoulder pads) you just don't see enough floor length raincoats nowadays, they cover a multitude of sins Grin

Completely agree! Although, in my case, my dad's old raincoat combined with my lack of height meant that I looked like I had no feet and that I glided around on coasters. I was a right catch, me.

My massive raincoat was too long too (early 90s) so I wore massive black and white platform trainers so it didn't scrape along the floor, and the awful make up, oh my goodness Blush I thought everyone was looking at me as I swanned past because I was so gorgeous, now I know they were looking because they couldn't quite believe the state of me haha.
