A three hit wonder group in the mid-80's.
Saw them in 85, and the shrieking from the girls was like a Beatles concert.

Bioshock Infinite (video game) did a version of this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAA_zE5a3JQ
In the game some people from the 1800s figured out hot to time travel, going forward in time and capturing the music and then reproducing it in the past.
The lyrics play into the game’s theme too.
It was so well placed in the game (you don’t hear the whole tune and some characters just hum it) that I didn’t even realize it was Everybody wants to Rule the world until about a third of the way into the game.

When Dennis Miller had a show on HBO, great show, this was his theme song.

Love it. Thx for posting.

Great song, epitomizes the ‘80’s.
Gotta wonder why the video is set on I-10 through Banning/Palm Springs.

Perhaps, but they have at least one song that virtually everyone knows.
Believe me, any band that had 10 non-memorable “hits” would have killed for that.
