Product Information

The album reached No. 12 on the UK Albums Chart, while the singles charted well, with " I Could Be Happy" peaking at No. 7, "See Those Eyes" at No. 11 and "Pinky Blue" at No. 35 on the official singles chart. [3] This was to be their highest placed album in the charts and was certified silver by the BPI for sales of over 60,000 copies. [4] The style of the album moved further away from their post-punk roots and further into pop music, aided by their decision to include a cover version of Neil Diamond's MOR hit " Song Sung Blue", which was released as a fourth single only in Holland. The album was produced by Martin Rushent, who had already produced the band's successful 1981 hit single " Happy Birthday", though this would be their last project with him. Altered Images are a Scottish new wave/ post-punk band who found success in the early 1980s. Fronted by singer Clare Grogan, the group branched into mainstream pop music, having six UK top-40 hit singles and three top-30 albums from 1981 to 1983. [1] Their hits include " Happy Birthday", " I Could Be Happy", "See Those Eyes", and " Don't Talk to Me About Love".

Grogan sang live under the name Altered Images in 2002 for the Here and Now Tour, showcasing a revival of popular bands of their era alongside the Human League, ABC, and T'Pau, [12] and again for some separate shows in 2004. a b Griffin, John (12 August 1983).
