"Ink And Paper" by Modern English

Not so modern anymore, the English synth pop band called Modern English are best known for their song, "I Melt With You." it charted twice in the US: it reached #78 when first released in 1983 and then resurfaced in 1990 (re-recorded) and made it to #76. Who knows? With global warming, maybe it will chart again.

Aside from "I Melt With You," the band only scored one other charting single. "Hands Across The Sea" barely made it on the board, reaching #91 in 1984.

"Ink And Paper" is a song from their 1986 album, "Stop Start." This song is a bit of a clone of "I Melt With You," but I was surprised that it didn't give the band an elusive top 40 appearance.
