It's no secret that the 1980's was a very special time for New Zealand music. The Flying Nun bands are really cult classics everywhere. Although Beat Rhythm Fashion, a band from Wellington, were never a Flying Nun band, they do capture something special that was going on in New Zealand at the time. This song is so haunting and beautiful. The vocals are such a delightful mix of slacker and masterful. We're total suckers for those huge stereo chorus synth strings. One day when we have corporate jobs, we'll buy this 7". — Yumi Zouma
