Towards the end of the punk era there were some fairly bleak films made, like Jubilee. They were gradually replaced – as the music was – by more futuristic, technology driven films and sounds. This track is taken from the film Breaking Glass, which starred Hazel O’Connor. She also sang a large portion of the soundtrack, which in my opinion blends some of the punk ideals with the new (for those days) electronic music.
Hazel O’Connor didn’t have the same commercial success as, say, Toyah, but this track stands the test of time well I think,
Eighth Day – Hazel O’Connor
