I'll never forget this from the Work tour back in '87. It also incorporates a bit of the Psychedelic Furs "Heartbreak Beat" and U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For".

Just heard this on KEXP. I won't exactly be rushing out to buy their album but I thought it was a nice spin on an oft heard record.
