 I think it's unfair to say that his scientific skills are lacking.  Dig a bit deeper and I think you'll find that he's quite a clever Trevor, especially in the world of audioelectronics - his music is in the great majority excellent too.

Thomas Dolby is a masterful musician and songwriter. Would love to hear some of his lesser known tracks like, "I Love You Goodbye".

<snip>He's a great musician; yet I can't comment on his scientific skills: maybe those are lacking and thus the basis of this song? Ignorance (a.k.a. blindness) is bliss. Seems like I understand the gist of this song now.

No, that's what the PSD (Play Something Different) button is for! I just had to employ it with Rodrigo Y Gabriela. Can't stand their Hanuman.

This one is overplayed on commercial radio but if you back away from that and listen, it is a great song. Dolby had some good ones, One of Our Submarines and I Scare Myself are two of his best.

Cover band in Annapolis named Music Room does an awesome version of this.  {#Dancingbanana}

And actually Thomas Dolby himself just played at the Rams Head in Annapolis so double {#Dancingbanana}

Overplayed? Perhaps but Dolby was really good. Still like this song a lot.

Yes. Always a reminder of Kelly LeBrock.

Wasn't Dolby a classically trained musician?

I missed this kind of 80's music on purpose. Doesn't do it for me.
