A key presence in the synth pop movement of the early '80s, Naked Eyes formed in Britain in 1981. Comprised of former schoolmates Pete Byrne (vocals) and Rob Fisher (keyboards), the duo debuted in March 1983 with the LP Burning Bridges, reissued in the U.S. a month later (minus several tracks) as a self-titled effort. The lead single, a majestic cover of the Burt Bacharach-Hal David perennial "Always Something There to Remind Me," emerged as a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching the U.S. Top Ten on the strength of its video, which received heavy airplay on the fledgling MTV network. The American follow-up, "Promises, Promises" (not the Bacharach/David composition), was also a major hit, and Naked Eyes' future looked bright; however, 1984's Fuel for the Fire fared poorly, its lone single "(What) In the Name of Love" barely scraping into the Top 40. The duo disbanded soon after, and in 1988 Fisher resurfaced as one half of the pop duo Climie Fisher. He died August 25, 1999, of complications following stomach surgery. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
The first six or seven years of the 80s were great years musically, but by the time Katrina and The Waves came along the rot was well and truly started. I live in the States now and have for a really long time. Just like the backward slide of American politics in recent years, much of the popular music right now is purest shite. For god's sake someone tell Katie Perry to STFU. I admit I like some of Gaga, but would someone put a wooden stake through the heart of that crone Madonna?
These guys were great and never seemed to receive the recognition they deserved during the 80's. Would love to see them on a HUGE 80s Retro Reunion Tour or the like w/Tears for Fears, OMD, Duran Duran, The pet Shop Boys and the like...

"Always Something There to Remind Me" reminds me of the time something reminded me of the time I heard Audioslave's "Doesn't Remind Me" around the time something reminded me of something.
Their greatest hits CD is really good. New Musik is good too (see thetk5 below). Not really known here in the states, i picked up a couple of their CD's as Japanese imports. Buggles fits into this lot as well.
of note, the always something single was produced by the guy from New Musik who had a minor hit with Straight Lines...there later albums (new musik) had a lot of drum tracks like the one in always there...
