In 1983 Kajagoogoo released their first single, “Too Shy”. The song became a massive international hit in Great Britain, the US, Canada, Japan, Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden, Belgium, and about a half dozen other countries. The song was so huge that EMI were pressing 35,000 copies a day to keep up with demand! My guest this week on BAXIES MUSICAL PODCAST is former lead singer Limahl. Limahl talks about that song, getting fired from the band, reforming, and the release of his other international hit “Never Ending Story”. Limahl also talks about his upcoming single—an incredible retooling of “Horse With No Name” by America. Just an incredible story. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app!
