    Possibly thee best and underrated talents of the late 1980’s and early 1990’s and would you believe their Scottish as well so what’s not to like about this classy tune from back in the day.I’m now 66 and listened to Hue and Cry every day back then without doubt a Scottish supergroup.

    I first saw H&C on TV one lunchtime in 1986/87. Pebble Mill at One with Judy Spiers. They were singing Labour of Love. Brilliant song, but this one is my favourite of theirs. The lyrics are so applicable to my struggles with debt back then.

      They were too sophisticated for the times then...can you imagine how they compare today? Different plane man. It's almost like genuine genius can be measured by the level of its so-called "underachievement". To me, they're the benchmark for modern Scottish musical talent. Very few come within a thousand kilometres of these two.
