Need help with a song...

[maddog_2002]

I'm going nuts trying to find the name of an obscure New Wave song from the early 80's.

I'm pretty sure that the group was from Sweden and the song came out in the early 80's (83? 84?). The chorus goes somthing like this:

Hello - Hello
Hello - Hello
Screaming for love (loving?)
On the phone

At other times in the song, the 'H' in Hello is
electronically repeated - like H-h-h-h-h-h-h-Hello.

The song is very synth-pop and it has some telephone dial-tone sound effects mixed in. The Hello chorus has alternating high and low notes. The song is med-tempo and vocalist is female.

Does anybody know this song?

Great description Maddog! I just wish I could help ya. Seeing that you're pretty sure this group came from Sweden, maybe <a href="http://www.i80s.com/ubb_cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile ;u=00000521" target="_blank">Zalve</a> will be able to help you out. As you can see from his profile, he's from Sweden. Good luck!

Hmmm...

Im not sure, but that could be "Style", "Freestyle" eariler. I know they got a song called "Telephone" but im not sure if they have done it in english.

Ill try to find some website for you.

I have now found the song in swedish, and it must be this one. This "H-e-l-l-l-l-l-o" is in there and there rest u write about, part form the femal vocals, (she sings in the chorus)

"Style- Telephone" I just found out that they record it in english 1985 (swedish version 1984)

Do u want me to send copy to you ?!
