Certain Things Are Likely (single) text only articles

As usual, Kissing The Pink have come up with something slightly removed from the mainstream.

With these guys though there's no knowing whether it will go all the way or flop miserably. We shall just have to wait and see.

PS, if you do find you like it, there are four different versions of Certain THings Are Likely on the 25-minute dance-oriented 12-incher! (John Lee)

Remember the Last Film?

Yes, that's right, it was that annoyingly catchy single which gave Kissing The Pink its one and only UK Top 20 hit in the early Eighties.

It was followed by a "critically successful" LP called Naked and an American tour with The Police

That led to a US Top 60 entry with Maybe This Day, and a second LP here in Europe, in late 1984, called What Noise.

Then there was the last Kissing The Pink single with its eight-strong line-up. It came out in 1985 and was called The Other Side Of Heaven.

The streamlined KTP (even the name was truncated) emerged a year later with a sound and style first sampled on the One Step single.

It was produced by Pete Walsh, of Simple Minds reputation, and became a hit in Italy and Holland. Polygram USA signed up KTP for the States, where the record shot to No 5 in the dance charts.

Now the band is back in Britain hoping to break through again with a single called Certain Things Are Likely.

Could one of those Things be another big hit for KTP? (John Lee)

I hope the radio DJ's will play "Certain Things Are Likely" by Kissing the Pink, it's good and it's about time they had a hit. (Andy Anderson)
