Featuring John Wetton (King Crimson) on bass and lead vocals.
Steve Howe (YES) guitar and Geoff Downes (The Buggles/YES) keyboards.
Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake and Palmer) on drums.
ASIA would record two albums with this line up (ASIA and ALPHA), before Wetton quit/was fired and replaced by Carl Palmer's bandmate Greg Lake, who had also been in the band King Crimson and been replaced, coincidently by John Wetton.
The video was directed by Kevin Godley (drummer/vocals) and Lol Creme (guitarist/keyboards/vocals) formerly of the band 10cc. The duo left the band in 1976 to pursue a solo career and ended up directing some of the most memorable videos of the eighties and would win the MTV 'Video Vanguard' award before splitting up in the early nineties.
In the 2000's Lol Creme would join up with Trevor Horn (The Buggles) to form the touring band The Producers.
Made this a day or so ago and finally got it online.. it's a free download at the alone tone.. not sure if I remember that I can or can't post links to my songs here??
How and what is it with the 80s new wave/postpunk songs that are otherwise odes to exes, yet can be so bleepin' energetic and entertaining?!! Possibly to help people get over the bleeps, I suppose...
