OK, more one-hit wonders: This Gerald Casale 1980 composition was the biggest hit for his Akron, OH-based New Wave band. Peaked at #14 on Billboard's Hot 100. The band itself funded the $15,000 video. Because of its S&M overtones it was banned from some TV markets - considered "offensive to women". "...an imitation of Thomas Pynchon's parodies in his book "Gravity's Rainbow". Band? Song?
Yesterday's answer: "As Time Goes By". Dang, that's a romantic one! Ingrid was lookin' mighty good! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vThuwa5RZU
