From Wikipedia: China Crisis is a British rock group formed in 1979 in Kirkby on Merseyside, with a core band of vocalist/keyboardist Garry Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. Their output was pop music similar in style to that of the new romantics, but with strong similarities to the post-punk movement of the early 1980s, namely inclusion of a broader range of musical influences and occasional flirtation with political commentary. Sharing an affection for Stevie Wonder, David Bowie, and Brian Eno, Daly and Lundon had become burned out from playing with various Knowsley post-punk groups. Daly quit school and then spent much of his time indoors tinkering with synthesizers and a drum machine. Along with Lundon, Daly began writing songs using his high-tech toys.

Arizona Sky Lyrics

China Crisis

The arizona sky
The sky is bigger there
It took my breath away
That doesnt happen every day
Manhattans music, man
On every avenue
Youve heard no greater sound
Too much can get you down
Decorate, paint it for the union
No reson to give up on the illusion
Take confident possession of yourself
No reson to give up on the illusion
Venice is sinking fast
Looks almost upside down
Under a spell we fell
Theres more, too much to tell
Decorate, paint it for the union
No reson to give up on the illusion
Take confident possession of yourself
No reson to give up on the illusion
Uptown in ? ? ? ?
Beneath chicago moon
Spend every dollar saved
As much as we have made
