The Twelve Inch (Disco/80s)'s avatar

I adore "Favorite Shirts" I played the twelve inch a lot and they had a decent debut album but at the same time I do understand why it never went anywhere after the initial "popstar of the week" phase. From all the new UK bands of the era their problem was it wasn't all that clear what they wanted to be. It sounds nice but it doesn't really stick (apart from the debut single). I'm curious though, to hear your rant on Arista & Clive Davis 😁😁

Figured someone might ask, so I'll message you with some links! Will have to check out the mixes of "Favourite Shirts" sometime.

I don't recall this song but it's pretty cool and adventurous! Maybe it sounded too different from Love Plus One to become a hit? Then again with that song's relatively low peak on the charts they probably didn't have much of a chance to have another hit. Love Plus One was a great song though that remains an 80s staple!
