From the Fine Young Cannibals in 1989. What a groove. #1 in the U.S. A British band they unfortunately fell apart shortly thereafter. The lead singer is Roland Gift. The piano solo is by Jools Holland, former keyboardist for Squeeze.
The song was also featured in the 1987 film Tin Men, starring Danny DeVito and Richard Dreyfuss. Set in Baltimore in 1963, the film makers thought the retro sound of the band and the song fit well. This video includes scenes from the movie.
