On this date in 1982, Modern English released their fifth single, "I Melt With You". It was backed by "The Prize". The 12 inch version had two different B sides, "Life In The Gladhouse" and "Someone's Calling". All songs except "The Prize" appeared on their second album, After The Snow. "The Prize" was added to the album as a bonus track when it was re-released on CD. The single reached the #78 spot on the U.S. singles chart but did not chart in the U.K. The Colchester, England post punk/new wave band first disbanded in 1986. They have reunited to record and perform a few times since.

Wasn't this song re-recorded, or maybe remixed some years later? does anyone know for sure?
Yes, it sure was, Douglas. I think it was in 1990. It reached the #76 spot on the U.S. singles chart, just two places better than the original.
