Very Effective

Also, I was trying to place the song. It had a kind of Proustian effect on me. After some searching around, I found that the original is by Tears For Fears. I probably haven't heard it in 20 years. But it takes me back. The mid 80's were a positively magical time to be a college student, with New Wave in full swing. No iPods, no notebook computers, no internet, no cell phones, no voicemail, just dealing with people directly, and with a musical culture that was still shared and unified. Oh, it was very good.

Anyway, here's a link to the original.
