Is anyone out there a fan, or even a listener, of Talk Talk? As far as I know, they only have one album out ("The Party's Over") and their best-known song is "Talk Talk". My feeling is that the band they sound most like is Duran Duran (how fitting!), except that Talk Talk is much better. Anyone know if I got all that right? Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?

Is this the same group that had a song in the movie Night Shift? I just saw that for the first time and think Talk Talk was listed on the credits. Being bad with names, have there been other songs that have been played at all that I would recognize?

Right you are! Talk Talk's single "Talk Talk" was in the movie "Night Shift." I had the misfortune of seeing these guys live two summers ago when they were opening for Elvis Costello. They were terrible. All their songs sound a lot like "Talk Talk." Thankfully, they've been pretty quiet since then. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) Mason Woo (brunix!mw)

> All their soungs sound a lot like "Talk Talk." > brunix!mw i don't think that's true at all. if you have heard their album (which i think i quite good) you would realise that a lot of their songs are much slower than "Talk Talk."
