Toaderino 5 Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hi Nottstalgia! Can anyone here identify this song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnmSRDFa2Pw It was recorded in the 80s (probably the early 80s) from Radio Trent (Trent FM). There is really not much known about it. It's often compared to Duran Duran and Oingo Boingo but it's not them and it's very unlikely that it's by any well-known band. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DAVIDW 1,683 Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 It comes up "My Murder" by The Jungklas though looking at comments not so sure ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Toaderino 5 Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hey, that video was uploaded by a troll. You may notice that the audio is identical to that of the video I shared - same length, quality and even the fade-in is there. Also the band in the photo is a modern Australian band called Press Club: https://www.discogs.com/artist/6410596-Press-Club Sorry to say but the search continues. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,467 Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Listening to the song in the original post, it's not bad and very 1980s, although I don't recognise it. I agree with the Youtube comments that the vocalist sounds very Germanic/Scandinavian. There's probably no Nottingham connection other than it was played on Radio Trent.

Toaderino 5 Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Yeah I'm not convinced the singer is British or a native english speaker. Most people seem to think he is but not even Brits can really place his accent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Toaderino 5 Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Also heads up: Kokane Guns were once a lead and have been ruled out. Their bassist was contacted and he said they only ever released 1 single which can be found online. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
