The first China Crisis song I ever heard, and still one of the best. Totally underrated ode to the working class…in the electro-pop medium, which some would say was unexpected. The fact that British pop came from the working class, and that much of it in the 1980s was a direct reaction against Maggie Fucking Thatcher, might go a long way to explaining this.
The fact that it’s got a good beat and is danceable is just a bonus, really.
Crank that mother.
