Ah yes, The New Bohemians from 1988. I honestly can't believe it's been that long because the song doesn't sound dated at all and I forgot how good it is. I think I actually did not appreciate it enough when it came out and now that I hear it again was probably way ahead of it's time when it was released. Too bad I only heard a few songs but that band and I don't recall ever hearing anything since. I did poke around and I found this version of that song from 2018:

Love that band but at what point will they no longer be "new."  Maybe just "The Bohemians" now?

Good one.

I only remember hearing one song by them on the radio but they had some other pretty good songs. What I remember is that Edie quit the band when she married Paul Simon long ago. I always wondered why she would just quit though?

I read that Edie left the band to pursue her own music and had nothing to do with Paul. Interesting couple.
