Biography

English 1980s new wave pop band, founded in London (UK) in 1979 as Huang Chung by [a142049] (lead vocals, keyboards, guitar), [a414897] (vocals, keyboards, bass guitar) and [a107954] (vocals, drums, percussion, keyboards). In 1981 the group expanded to a quartet, with the addition of sax player [a1246042]. In keeping with the all-pseudonymous nature of the band, Burnand was known as [a2909585] for the first Arista single, and later, simply as Hogg. Their self-titled debut album was released by Arista Records in 1982 after several profile raising singles. After the release David Burnand left due to "musical differences". In late 1982, Huang Chung they signed with American label [l821]. They changed the spelling of their name to Wang Chung (at David Geffen’s suggestion, to make pronunciation easier).

LYRICS

Drifting down the spaceway
By the betelgeuse hotel
Mapping out constellations
Of the place I know so well
Sifting through the system
For the piece that knows my name
Endlessly I listen in the master game

welcome to my world (welcome to my world)
Welcome to my only world (Welcome to my only world)
It is full of space junk
But your words are getting through
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
Bringing me to you

Through the tenth dimension
To the certainties beyond
Dreamily inattention and the subatomic bomb
Machine that spins within me
And the spirit that drives me on
Searching for an answer

welcome to my world (welcome to my world)
Welcome to my only world (Welcome to my only world)
It is full of space junk
But your words are coming through
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
Bringing me to you

Sitting on the space junk
What am I to do
I'm riding on the Space junk
And it's bringing me to you
My head is full of space junk
But your words are getting through
Riding on the space junk
it's bringing me to you (repeat)
