I happen to like the mixes on the US version the best, personally. If you're really into the Swingers, I recommend tracking them down. They're worth the trouble. You can find Phil Judd's music various places as well via the Suburban Reptiles, his solo stuff, Split Enz, various movie an television soundtracks, the Unth!nkables, etc.

The song is well known for its catchy beat and this memorable music video. The song was in Australia in March 1981 and in New Zealand that May.
