same here, although i vaguely remember a follow up........

**Chris H** · 29th July 2007, 02:37 PM

I ran was way bigger than wishing.

in fact wishing is obscure in comparision.

**bidderman1969** · 29th July 2007, 02:57 PM

dont ring any bells here, was it a hit up there?

sparky33 · 30th July 2007, 02:10 AM

I don't recall it either, and bear in mind, I had all of my teenage years in the 80's

**bncrew** · 30th July 2007, 07:51 PM

all criticism aside as long as the inlay has some pictures of their haircuts they can count on my fifteen quid for a copy

**Chris H** · 30th July 2007, 07:51 PM

1982 for I ran and 83 for wishing.

**bncrew** · 30th July 2007, 07:54 PM

i ran gave them a very minor cult revival when it was used on the advert/soundtrack for GTA Vice City

sparky33 · 30th July 2007, 08:35 PM

Still don't know it, I just remember wishing and that stupid seagull haircut.

**bncrew** · 30th July 2007, 09:02 PM

hey nothing stupid about the haircut, if i could successfully grow decent hair id get that shit on the go right now, check out i ran, its a decent eighties song, prob (in my opinion) their only good one

someone post a link to a version of it, if it was a hit in the 80's I'll recognise it.

I do remember it, but not like I remember wishing, I'm sure wishing was a bigger hit.

Knew I would find the info somewhere

1050 CHUM - CHUM Charts

I ran gets to one place higher, but Wishing was a bigger hit according to positions and time in the top 40, so will have got more air play.

nope, i dont remember it at all
