This was a request I got from Sonny Walkman. Not sure if he was trying to give me a hard song but little did he know that this might have been the first 45 rpm record I ever bought. Devo, a New Wave, Synth Pop band released this song in 1980. Warner Bros. did not expect this song to be a success but it became an international hit, charted in several countries & peaked at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100. The video was also a hit on MTV.
