I can listen to this song 100 times a day and never get sick of it. What do you all think of it?

I love the song too but in all seriousness I'd probably get sick of it after the 97th playing [Big Grin]

I love it......the music is so different.

Awesome tune from Real Life who were considered an Australian new wave band possibly. OK, back to what I really know.....this song was placed most excellently in the movie "RAD".

Hey, I found RAD on youtube, can someone post it for me. Type in Send Me An Angel RAD to find it....the one that is 3:33 is the best sounding. Anyone else a fan of this flick?

This song was also in "The Wizard" if you remember.

I haven't seen Rad in years, but remember loving it. I was into bike stunts as a kid. Have to get a copy.

Why can't you post youtube links yourself? Just wondering. Here it is:

Thanks....that RAD clip is wicked cool. I didn't remember it being in "The Wizard" until watching the clip.

I love this song, I think there were two versions, I remember when they re-released it in 1989. I've been looking for the album Heartland this song was on, on cd format for ages to no avail. I just have it on tape, and there were other good songs that didn't get on the best of. The best of is poor IMO, it had remixes and poor song selection.

Is it just me or when I first heard the Killers i was thinking this song was the kind of style they emulating. I think they could do a heck of a version.

I love this song to. What a band. This song was also used on the film Teen Wolf (I think). I like that movie with MJ Fox.

I love Real life's song Hammer of love that is brillant to, I love synths they are fantastic instruments. I have the 1988 version tho when they re-relised it. I think the first relese was 1983. The version of 'send me an Angel' I have is on thier greatest hits album, which is worth getting hold of coz the songs are ace on it

Devolution here,

I don't think it was used in Teen Wolf. I happen to own Rad, it's a great movie, I found a VHS of it years ago. That is my favorite part of the movie.

That is a movie with a totally underrated soundtrack.

WE are DEVO
