Remember Londonbeat? Well, you can get their greatest hits as an import for less than $12, so you’re not alone if you don’t. They had a couple of good songs on their In the Blood album from 1991, but that same year they also showed up on Alison Moyet’s amazing Hoodoo record. “Find Me” is the closing track and has one of those great build-up-to-an-anthemic-“na na na”-climax structures that are perfect at the end of an album. Even if it’s not the best song on the album (it’s not), you shouldn’t really follow it with anything.
