First off, I forgot how much I loved this song. Its a total tear jerker. I never liked Duran Duran, the original creators of this ditty but I did adore this song. William Beckett, the former lead of The Academy Is…seems to take away some of the flash and add an almost melancholy to it.
The Academy Is.. has broken up leaving its charismatic leader band less. With guitar and a LayZ Boy chair he certainly brings a new element to this song. I cant help but wonder what will he do now? I mean I don't think making youtube videos in your bedroom is a moneymaker… well not if your singing cover songs.
I hope. I hope William Beckett gets on board with a new band. I sorta dig him after seeing this. Hes more mature but still vulnerable. Very catchy and a great growth spurt for a great song.
