        Yep, it's them. Of course that picture in the clip probably gave it away, if Mike Peters' voice wasn't obvious enough.

            Unless you lived in Cascadia at the time, you probably never heard of this one. But it was a big hit around here....

                And right around the same time, up the road in Vancouver, this was happening.....

                    BTW, the blonde chick dancing in that video had her own band. They were apparently trying to be the Canadian Ramones, or something....

                        This one was better


                        They later got signed to Paisley Park and pretty much disappeared like every other band signed to that label...

                            I like this song.

                            Does it make me GAY or GHEY... or both?

                                            I heard this song a lot on the KGB FM radio in San Diego.

                                                I prefer Der Kommissar Falco´s original version to this cover, though I would have loved to sing this with my father:

                                                She was singin'
                                                Don't turn around, uh-oh
                                                Der Kommissar's in town, uh-oh
                                                You're in his eye
                                                And you'll know why
                                                The more you live
                                                The faster you will die

                                                    I didn't mind the record so much, but damn did that band ever suck live (they opened for Van Halen in 1982).

                                                    Granted, I was VERY drunk that night, but I think they would have sucked either way.

                                                        How about this gem on early MTV that never charted on Billboard...
