It would be unfair to call Icehouse a one-hit wonder, but for all the albums they released in the 1980s and 1990s none of their other tracks ever really came close to this one in terms of either chart success or memorability.
I remember at the time this song drew a lot of comparisons to Roxy Music and Japan and, although I hated the latter band and never really cared much for the former either (the sublime "More Than This" excepted), I always liked this one. Still do, even if the synthy bits sound rather horribly dated today.
