Produced by “Manchester Sound” creator Martin Hannett… featuring Bernard Sumner of New Order … AND The Mission UK frontman Wayne Hussey on guitars… no wonder this song is Awesome!
Along
with this team, Pauline Murray and the Invisible Girls released the
last of three singles they made (in addition to one album) in April 1981
before calling it a day. “Searching For Heaven” is a glorious New Wave
gem, with sweet vocals and that lovely sense of romantic urgency that
makes songs like this so great. Although the song was short-lived in
popularity even in its day, thanks to the internet it lives on - on
YouTube and wonderful stations like SOMA-FM’s Underground 80s, where I
heard it recently.
But we don't have to search for heaven - we live it twice weekly on Marc’s Top 200 - The Extended Edition!
Enjoy!
