Underrated and fabulous!
Got this 12″ meself so thanks for your rips, Richie.
Would you have his latter single White Horses too?
That is another yummy 12″ single.
Wild Horses was a really good song but, alas, I do not have that 12″
Thanks!
He put on his best ‘David Bowie’ Voice and had the biggest hit of his career [?]
Any who ’tis a good ’80′s style Pop Rocker esp. the ‘Dance’ Mix, I seen the video a few times on TV
Though didn’t quite rock the charts in the UK – one of many US hit to be ignored I guess
