Growing out of the synth-heavy and ruthlessly stylish new romantic movement. A Flock Of Seagulls were one of prime movers in the 80's new wave era. The perfect slow jam ending track.Ī Flock Of Seagulls may well be known for their bizarrely teased haircuts as much as their hit single "I Ran".
It's a the slow dub version from Situation. Its then a couple of instrumental versions before ending up somewhere where the Seagulls have never been before. They go first for a Depeche Mode style groover and then a zippy analog synth and guitar quirker. Then a couple from Italian Balearic disco legend Daniele Baldelli (with his studio partner Rocca). Stretch them, break them down, add some new keys and bang. Its then into the 12" Extended version territory as we take those two versions and extend them 80s 12" style. Opening up the release is the Prague Philharmonic Orchestral version and the Main version with the sounds everyone is used to. The main event is the expansive and lush Orchestral rendering however there is a bundle of 10 versions in all on the Single release.
The album puts a new and unique spin on their greatest hits by performing orchestral versions with the Prague Philharmonic providing an all-powerful backing.Īs the second single from the "Ascension" album we revisit their biggest hit, the 80s classic "I Ran". For the first time since 1984, all four original members of the band appear on Record together for their new album "Ascension". In the words of VH1 "A Flock of Seagulls is a Band Reunited".
