I can't help with what you heard on the radio. But a couple of nights ago I was listening to an album called Duel and the artist was Iva Twydell, I also listened to his Secret Srvice album the night before that

ahh that will be....

Propaganda's second single, the more pop-oriented "Duel", didn't surface until April 1985. Perhaps the band's most recognisable release, it was also their most successful single in the UK, reaching number 21.

BRILLIANT YOU REALLY ARE A STAR TIMEY.

Video as well!!! what a great track...I'm off to download it now.

I seem to remember the singer being a bit more lush than that.....perhaps my taste has changed as I've got older.

Didn't know they were German.

Apart from them and Yello and Trio can't have been many other successful German acts in the British Charts?
