When I first heard this band I thought they were Strawberry Switchblade, the 1980s Scottish duo of the delightful "Since Yesterday". They aren't, but the similarity is in more than name: both bands made sweet, sugary pop with angelic (and very very young-sounding) female vocals.
Strawberry Story came from somewhere in the north of England and put out a few singles, mostly in the early '90s. They got back together a couple years ago and released some new material on Cloudberry but I understand they've since split again.
This song appeared on the 1991 compilation The Waaaaah! CD which, if you don't have, you really should.
All the Waaaaah! stuff has been put up for free download by Richard: http://www.bubbyworld.com/waaah/waaahfront.htm. There's some really great stuff in there!
