Desire Avenue

I am so so thrilled, I have just won their debut album and follow up Spinning on Ebay. I lost the albums during a house move and had been gutted ever since because I was never able to find them again.

I remember back in 1997 I had Spinning on repeat all the time, I loved the track God, Sir. Such beautiful voices, whatever became of them??

That is a great track and funnily enough the only track I can remember from the 'Spinning' album.

Found this very very strange little video on youtube of them singing Rubber Arms from Spinning, my god, they were very very good...

Shame they split up...

Yes, a very good band I had the chance to see live a few years ago.

It seems they both are carrying on a (less interesting) solo career...

Oh, and I named my first and still alive cat after them.

Such a shame really as together they were just captivating. The simplicity of the video really allows the song to shine so brightly, but also is not remotely boring either. I am dying for the CDs off ebay to arrive, I was absolutely in love with them 10 years ago and losing the albums was a real pain. Since moving to Australia, where nothing gets released at the same time as everyone else - always after, I have really been stumped with finding my runaway CD collection!!!!

I checked out their seperate websites, managed to get a track off their 3rd and 4th albums (which I didn't know existed), rather nice too, one is more electronic based which is interesting....

Nice video, shame about the song........i'm not surprised that I can't remember it off the album.
