Today's hit from 1982 features a lot of men in suits slaving away on a chain gang in an interesting little video from The Pretenders. The song was the highest charting single for The Pretenders in the U.S. peaking at #5. Also, congratulations seem to be in order for Chrissie, because apparently her daughter Yasmin (Simple Minds' lead singer Jim Kerr is her dad) is set to have a baby making Chrissie a grandma and Jim a grandpa.
