Number 174: Vicious Pink - Cccan't You See

One band you will definitely not see on this list is Soft Cell, due to my general hatred of their entire catalogue. Vicious Pink, while composed of ex-Soft Cell peripheral members Brian Moss and Jo Warden, is a different story. Formed in 1983, they released a string of singles over the next few years, including their biggest hit (and best song), "Cccan't You See". By 1986 their moderately-successful single releases were gathered together and pressed into a moderately-successful LP, Vicious Pink. The band supported Soft Cell on tour, then afterward quietly disbanded. "Cccan't You See" nabs position #174 on my Top 200.

    1. I'm not a fan of Soft Cell. Not sure why, just never really dug their stuff.
