Honestly I prefer the cover on It'll End In Tears but that doesn't mean I don't respect Rema Rema. Weird ass crazy indie artfully beautiful enigmatic hipsters from decades past

The TMC version is an almost perfect song. I always found that "schunk" sound that repeats every couple of seconds really annoying though and it spoils the song. This version is just too weird.

Wow! Always knew the TMC version... thanks to "Facing The Other Way' book i'm delving a little deeper. And uncovering nuggets! Like this! AMAZING!

Thanks to the Polish Radio Program III (Trójka) I met amazing indie music in 80s. It was really wonderful time with Piotrz Kaczkowski, Marek Niedzwiecki etc. Great music memories remained from this gray and sad era... Tak, dzieki Trójce wlasnie przezylem te szare lata...

Dirty, but extremely beautifil. I recommend this song for MoMA collections beside the photograph by Osamu Kanemura.

Yeah sure Ric Ocasek and Co. stole something from this. But Rama Rama were way first (1980 against 1984), and they were pretty far from sounding like The Cars

The whole Rema-Rema EP is epic. A work of brilliance.

Is it me, or does this sound like "Drive" by the cars, gone suicidal?

I love the bit at 1.52 where the sound drops out.

Back in the 80s, UC Davis' radio station used to play some great goth and post punk stuff. I'd go to bed around 9pm and put them on and drift to sleep....one night after falling asleep, I woke sometime later with this song on...however, the dj had gotten the speed wrong and it was playing very slowly...I remember thinking WTF is this?

Ahhh, this song is so amazing. I heard it by This Mortal Coil first.... I wish I had written it.
