Koo De Tah

about

If you're not an Australian or a New Zealander, the odds are that you don't remember Koo De Tah (say it out loud, you'll soon get the pun) at all. If you are an Australian or a New Zealander, you probably only remember their sole hit, 1985's rather wonderful 'Too Young For Promises', and mentally consigned them to the 'one hit wonder' basket years ago. Was that all there was to the Koo De Tah story? Well, yes, almost, but not quite. During their career, they did manage five singles and an album, and both band members have since had solid if not spectacular careers. I'll mention their pre- and post-band activities below, but the main aim is to provide an overview of the band's career during its brief heyday. At a glance: Tina Cross vocals Leon Berger keyboards, songwriting, production with Peter Radnai drums John Bettison guitar, violin Capree Morris keyboards Roger Faynes bass Doug Henderson coproducer, manager Singles All releases on Mercury (through Polygram). Too Young For Promises/Dancing (Towards The Stranger) (1985) 12" featured Extended Mix of TYFP and Dance Mix of DTTS. Still a classic number. Body Talk/My Eyes Are Shut (1985) 12" featured Body Mix of BT. This song got its debut at the end of a 1985 Countdown (the prime slot), but failed to make much chart impression. Think Of Me/Love 'Em Never (1986) 12" featured an unnamed extended mix of TOM. The comeback single (remixed from the album version) that didn't quite come back. Missed You All Along/Change My
