      One of the records that turned impressionable 80s kids like me onto electronic music in the first place. A drum pattern and a synth riff you never forget, plus lyrics about nuclear weapons (that cold war fear that we could be bombed out of existence at any moment was still very much alive at the time). A true classic, my only complaint is that it was too short - I was very disappointed when I found a 12" of this, to discover it didn't have an extended mix on it!
