I have been waiting for over 35 years for someone to post a "performance" video of this song. I saw them on a UK Saturday morning show (No. 73) in 1985 and fell in love withby Myles Benedict (the drummer). I became a bit obsessed and had all the vinyl and every magazine article and posters (and at the time they were being tipped for big things and so were getting reasonably broad coverage in the "pop publications" of the time).
I was lucky enough to see them live when they supported Human League (but sadly by that time, Myles had left the band).
They performed this live - and it was as brilliant as I had hoped it would be and Simon (guitarist) saw my scrapbook and invited me, my twin, and my best friend backstage to meet not only Drum Theatre but also Human League. (At the time I was only there to see DT so wasn't overly fussed about meeting HL... but now, with the passing of time, I realise how lucky I was).
Anyway.. enough of my ramble down memory lane. Here in the UK the song deserved so, so much more than it got.
It was originally released in 1985 and flopped but was re-released in 1987 where it only just failed to make the Top 40 - peaking at No. 44 - but for me it's one of the greatest songs of all time.

Nice. I agree, it’s under appreciated and they should play this more often on the 80s channels.

I always liked this song too. You never hear it anymore though unless you happen to have it on your own playlist.

They were (briefly) popular in Italy apparently, and charted high there. Myles Benedict's real name is Miles Baggs, by the way.

@Pete S. The Italians are known for style and good taste !

La colonna sonora dei miei anni da leone, quando saltavo i fossi per lungo e non avevo paura di niente! ✌️
