Worth a look.
Thank you @TueartsOHK

Don't just play this on your phone and dismiss it as another 80s wanky pop tune. The production on this is superb. You can hear every note, every pluck of a string if you care to listen.
It's piss perfect, and a lot of these bands from this era get slated, maybe because of the look, fashion, etc, but this band obviously cared about the output.

Original artist, Don Gibson

I've clicked on your link and enjoyed the song, but I still don't know who's singing it?

Glasses are the fucking bane of my life Bill, I have a pair for reading, a pair for watching telly, a pair for driving, a pair for staring at a screen all day doing my work, etc etc.
My eyes can't fucking focus on anything unless I put a bloody expensive lense in front of them.

Japan did some decent covers, love this version of the Velvet Underground..



A very different take on Marvin Gaye's original..

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Not guilty.
Love this.

But that isn't a cover song ;)
