Song of the Day: 'Wishful Thinking' by China Crisis


Anyone remember China Crisis? Pretty shocking for me to see an '80s nostalgia tour that includes a band I can't name one song by. The name rings a bell -- not to be confused with the sublime single "China" by Red Rockers" -- but even their biggest song doesn't sound familiar.

Loved China Crisis! Saw them at the old 930 on F Street in DC.

You don't remember "Arizona Skies" or "Hampton Beach" from the
What Price Paradise CD?

I'd like to see them again. I have a feeling they're the kind of a band that would age well.

How about "Working with Fire and Steel"?

I thought that King In A Catholic Style would have been their biggest hit, but I'm with Peter "Working With Fire And Steel" is one of my favorite songs from the 80s.
