Yes, this song made #58 on My All Time Top 101 Favourite Tracks when I did the thread (see my signature) in July 2006.

QUOTE(russt68 @ Feb 6 2007, 10:41 PM)  they were a great band... this is one of their many gems. Love it. Like this: The Adventures - Send My Heart video (1984 UK#62) and this: The Adventures - Feel The Raindrops video (1985 UK#58) and finally: The Adventures - Drowning In The Sea Of Love video (1988 UK#44) |

Remember the lead singer, Terry... he was in the early Bananarama videos if you look close (Shy Boy I think)...as the geek.... he was seeing Nana Sarah Dallin for years.

This song is currently at #62 in the UK iTunes Rock chart. Has it been used in an advert or TV show recently? I can't imagine it being one of those perenial sellers.
Claim to fame - my father was offered the chance to be their lead singer before they were signed. He turned them down. Doesn't regret it though. |

I actually LOVE "Broken Land" not sure why it's back in the charts though. It's a creature of it's time I don't deny but it has a charm nevertheless.

Both the lead singer (Terry Sharpe) and guitarist (Paul Bowen) of The Adventures started out in a band called The Starjets. They had one UK Top 75 hit, 'War Stories' which made number 51 in September 1979
