The Freshies - Fasten Your Seatbelts (Stiff)

The good Mr. Sievey is at it again, this time doing a Yazoo by teaming up with Mancunian lady singer Barbara O'Donovan. Brilliantly and shamelessly conceived pop hit single, so well done it hardly matters that the song itself is a bit weak. (Johnny Black, Smash Hits, September 30, 1982)

Now down to a duo, the Freshies' pop vision has finally bottomed out at the level of Bucks Fizz. Where are the titles of yester-yore? Is this the man who wrote "(I Can't Get) "Bouncing Babies" By The Teardrop Explodes"? (Mark Cooper, Record Mirror, September 25, 1982)
