T'Pau was today's blurred memory.
I knew the name, but what was their hit?
YouTubed the answer. And quickly recalled a time I loved this song. Watching the YouTube video, I could sing along -- crooning nearly all of the lyrics like it was 1987 again.
I encourage you to do the same.
Three fun facts about the British group, T'Pau
- Got their name from Star Trek...
- "Heart and Soul" failed in the UK, but was an American smash hit reaching #4 in 1987.
- "Heart and Soul" was featured in a Pepe Jeans commercial.

Holy crap! I just heard this song on the radio two weeks ago, prompting me to re-visit the video on YouTube. Man, those lyrics are dark!
I <3'd this song! and I <3 you Blog :) *hugs* Jaime M. aka LilStampBug
Skated to this at Hot Skates. Well, creeped along the carpet walls at Hot Skates while this played in the background.
I loved this song--I still love it. It was on some compilation cassette tape I got in 5th grade, and I played it constantly. Robbie Nevil's song "C'est la Vie" was on it too, I'm pretty sure--I think that was the same tape. Remember that one? :)
I just found the tape listed on eBay. How funnyo to see this again! This was the one I had. :) http://www.ebay.com/itm/HOT-HITS-1988-K-TEL-T-PAU-CROWDED-HOUSE-ABC-Cassette-Tape-VG-Tapes-CT7-/311446268546?hash=item4883a4ea82:g:oI4AAOSwwbdWNDaR
