Whose singing on the Power Station track, it certainly aint Robert Palmer.

You're right. It was Michael Des Barres.

Story here:
John Taylor's Comments About "We Fight For Love," 1995: "Well, the band had toured, but Robert had not toured with the band. So we had Michael Des Barres, and he was a friend of Joel Silvers, and he asked us to do a song for the movie. At that time, I wasn't really sure how much time I wanted to give to the Power Station. It seemed like it had done its course, we toured, we made a record. I wasn't sure how far I really wanted it to go. We met with Joel, and he said 'Yeah, yeah, we can do a video of you guys with helicopters' and this and that. And I was like, no, this isn't for me. This isn't the direction I want it to go in. So some of the other guys wanted to do it. I played on it, but I wasn't really involved with the writing or production. I think I turned up and played, and it was the last thing we did."

Cheers, I was suprised as hell that was Power Station, seemed like all out Americana. Good though.

Prefer Arcadia really out of the Duran spin offs.

Complete:

Cindy : You steal my car, you rip the seat out, you kidnap me, you ask me to help you find your daughter which I very kindly do, and then you get me involved in a shoot out where people are dying and there's blood spurting all over the place, and then I watch you rip a phone booth out of a wall, swing from the ceiling like Tarzan, and then there's a cop that's going to shoot you and I save you and they start chasing me. Are you going to tell me what's going on or what?
