The first single record I EVER bought!!!!!! I was 15. Still love it. ❤️

Nothing as classy as this is made today in the music world. It was a joy to be around in 1978.

I'm 60 this year, RIP Bob Fish brings back a lot of memories.

I bought this record in 1978. A classic that never grows older.

Darts - a fantastic band, and an era when bands wrote and performed great music.

Still a great song after 42 years ,still got in on vinyl

Great song they never got the pat on the back they deserved . great group 🎶🎵🎸

One of my favourite video clips of Darts and fab song written by vocalist Griff Fender.

brilliant band, brilliant song, Bob Fish was an amazing singer

I'm still singing this in 2023

Den Hegarty as a legend, We needed so much more of him for so much longer...FFS!

Totally reminds me of the summer of 78 Brilliant and their best hit Thank you

The memories this song brings back are incredible ,but now I can enjoy it for all the right reasons.

we need this type of band back

Back in the day when you have at least 8 members in the band with a saxophone...I miss the music of the late 70's/Early 80's :(

RIP Bob Fish

Loved this band.Harmony was exceptional.

What a fantastic group they were saw then live back in 1978 thought they were the dog s .

Absolutely brilliant

saw this band at the victoria hall in hanley stoke on trent 1978 outstanding

Bob was a great singer R.I.P

A song that could relate to my life now. A great song.

Go see Darts tomorrow, first time live, cannot wait

Den Hegerty was box office as we're the band this is a classic 👌

Listening to this song on top of the garage roofs with mate Darren stenson.. on a cassette player the memories great song..

We saw them at the Civic in Wolverhampton-wonderful night

It reminds why I liked their music and why in my teens I had such a crush on Rita.

Yeah, Rita was lovely 😛

I'll miss Fish's color of voice... just like Tony Williams...or Jon Bowzer...one in a zillion!!!! Gosh...how I'll miss it!!!!

That sax is up there with Baker Street 👍

The record that completed their hat trick of number two hit singles in the UK chart.

Love this group always have...

Who couldn’t like any Darts single- I think I had at least 6

Fantastic band amazing days 🙏

Love it

Amazing Darts. Saw them in Gt Yarmouth (Tiffany's Ballroom) in 1978. They had had a hit with "Daddy Cool" and were touring to promote their follow-up single "Come Back My Love". Griff wrote "Sometime Lately" which is a fab R+R Ballad. Should be a standard. Had they been around 20 years sooner they would have been worldwide stars I think. Certainly up there with Dion and the Belmonts..

What a group

Stunning! 🥰

Love this xx

Line up changes took place here

I've always like do-wap,and I enjoyed this when it came out, but over almost five decades later, seeing and hearing his again has made me aware that I'd been unaware of how slick and polished a vocal and instrumental act they actually were-especially when compared to the shit acts that made it big in the early to mid 70s. I wonder what happened to them?
