About this album

Feargal Sharkey’s solo debut transformed the former Undertones frontman into a sharp, radio-ready pop singer with real emotional bite. Released in 1985, the album moved away from his punk and new wave roots towards sleek pop rock, while keeping the urgency and personality that made him stand out in the first place. Driven by the hit singles A Good Heart and You Little Thief, it became Sharkey’s most successful solo statement and showed how a post-punk voice could flourish in mainstream pop without losing character. The record remains a key example of mid-’80s crossover pop done with style and conviction.

Genre: Pop & Rock
