Echo and the Bunnymen are the Dominic Frontiere of New Wave music for me, since they occupied a time and place and composed a form of music that I "should" love, but for various reasons they haven't caught on with me.
Had the song in my head all morning. Then I went on YouTube and played it. I suppose one of the various reasons I never got into this group is that I think Ian McCullough is a terrible vocalist.
