Images of Heaven - Peter Godwin

From 1982. Have heard this song quite a bit on Flashback Alternatives.  It's all about the chord progression and the Bryan Ferry-inspired (weren't all those turn of the decade post-punk bands) vocal. I love the 60s fashion video clip that were put with the song in this youtube video.
Godwin was in the band Metro and wrote the song "Criminal World", which Bowie covered on his Let's Dance album (a favorite of mine, indicating to true Bowie fans that I am not one of them). Here is Metro's version of "Criminal World."
