No, I've heard both. And now you've got Understanding Jane stuck in my head! Oh well...

I used to have the second album A Small Price Of A Bicycle. I did really like it at the time. When It All Comes Down was a 12" of theirs I had.

Though not a hit I think I used to like Diving For Pearls by 1000 Mexicans. It had a good trumpet line from what I remember but I think it was a bit too indie synth pop to be a hit.

I really like all their albums (including the last one that's not even really them). I can't think of what the weak link on Bicycle is, but it is there.

Someone did a version of Imagination last year - the video featured some blonde woman writhing around and was on heavy rotation on mtv.
Quite liked it in a naff kind of way ; )

Argh!! I *hated* Brilliant Mind. Loads of my mates really liked it, but I always thought the chorus was half-cooked. It's one of those records that I hate so much - like Tallulah Gosh and H17's Temptation - that I almost get a perverse joy out of hearing them!!

Diving For Pearls was great!
Used to like 1000 Mexicans a lot - The Last Pop Song was another goodie.

H17s Temptation is a classic and it still sounds great today.
