Please help me remember this bands name from these lyrics...

[MoreSpamThanGlam]

Ok, so band were late 80's. Lead singer was called Mark something and a pinup..ish.

Bit twangy, couple of hits.

I remember the lyrics a bit like this

"When theres no getting over
The riches that you gave
And in the light that shines from you
I bathe myself I bathe myself

Cos

No point living without you
Yes, Im glad I found you
You will be the one I know"

Arghhhhhh....doing my head in that I cant remember!

[foxinsocks]

Yup, it's "The Motive" by Then Jericho. Big favourites of Liz Kershaw, as I recall.

[MoreSpamThanGlam]

You lot are fab...knew you wouldnt let me down!!!!

I kept thinking "The Message" and was getting Grand Master Flash....ffs!

[policywonk]

To be fair, 'The Message' is a lot better

[MoreSpamThanGlam]

Oh and Notadragon -I did google it for half an hour and couldnt find the sodding thing. Your sarcasm is noted and binned. But ta anyway.

[NotADragonOfCockALeekieSoup]

[southeastastra]

[UnquietDad]

Mark Shaw went solo and tried to come back in that "Reborn in the USA" show - he had a strop, walked out and was replaced by Peter Cox from Go West, the eventual winner.

[southeastastra]
