| REALLY SAYING SOMETHING |
| For Bananarama's third single the tables turned dramatically, as this time the Fun Boy Three were performing backing vocals for them! By reaching #5 in the UK charts was a sure sign that Bananarama were ready to set off on their own. |

| THE VIDEO The video features both Bananarama and the Fun Boy Three. The 'Nanas are more dominant, singing in their lovely 80's clothes with an array on cardboard cut-out instruments. They seem to be having a great time making the boys look very embarassed indeed. |
