This song is packed with the energy and experimental spirit that is unique to their debut period.
This single is symbolic of Blue Rondo a la Turk, who brought a Latin sensibility and a jazz twist to the UK new wave and post-punk scene of the early '80s.
The bouncy rhythm and beat reminiscent of Latin and salsa are intertwined with a sharp horn section, and David Floyd's witty and ironic vocals give the song an urban humor. The sharpness of new wave and the physicality of dance music are seamlessly blended, strongly reflecting the atmosphere of London club culture at the time.
