This English pop/rock band formed in 1978 and are still going having released a new album last year. Great music, Paddy McAloon has a spectacular voice. This is one of my favourite songs of theirs “When Love Breaks Down”. If can’t listen to this one in your country, here’s a live link ;)

Sound like Deacon Blue!
Deacon Blue is one of my fav. all time bands, I hadn’t thought of the connection between the two but you are right they do have a similar melodic 80’s sound :)
yeah, really a bit ;)
