This Means Nothing to Me

I know you've been wondering when the hell is the Excellent 80's going to provide us with Ultravox's signature song?  It's been day in and day out, year in and year out without Ultravox's hit song that peaked at #2 in the UK back in 1981.  Yes, here you go, it's the UK new wave band Ultravox with their signature song "Vienna"...
