Yvonne, it says that video is no longer available.

There's a lot of British stuff that was lesser known in Canada (where I'm from) and the U.S. that was probably much more popular in GBR.

For example, Midge Ure and Ultravox weren't that well-known here, but they enjoyed a lot of success abroad. A-HA is another band that had one or two hits in Canada, but they are still going strong in their homeland, I think.

Andy Kim made it big with The Archies when they sang "Sugar Sugar", but his solo career was not nearly as successful, nor was his decision to change his name to Baron Longfellow, but this song was a really good song that never gets played anymore:

I have a few obscure favorites, only problem is they are so obscure they can't be found on the net.

This was one of my favorite songs as a kid. It actually did get some airplay back in the very early '70s, so some of the old farts may know this one.
