From another site - trying to help the guy:
Hello- I used to record John Peel's show in the early 80's (bet that makes me unique) in 1980 or 1981 (1982 at a push)- he played Frantic Elevators 'searching for the only one' and Killing Joke 'Complications' on this particular show.
This is a long shot but....I am interested in another song he played that night
I taped the show, but missed the title due to enthusiatic use of the pause button. I have long chewed the tape.
The song had a one note bass line; drums maybe 60bpm; a bit of keyboard going on; vocals- very stylised, a bit like (and this sounds terrible) Spandau Ballet. The segment of lyric I can remember goes 'I'M THE ONE YOU HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR, (repeat,repeat)' and it ends with the repeated phrase 'YOU'RE LOOKING FOR, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR'.
Anyone recognise this song - 80-82, played on Peel?
