They recruited singers Mike Nolan, Chris Hamill, and Ricky Gallahad through ads in The Melody Maker and The Stage, to complete the line-up with Pereira.

Greenaway had written a string of hits with Roger Cook, including "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" and "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing".

The BBC expressed reservations over the title and lyrics, so the single was re-recorded as "What a Great Night for Falling in Love".

In 1980, the group travelled to Yugoslavia as the UK entry in the Ljubljana '80 song festival, which was telecast over most of Europe.

Mike Nolan went on to success with Bucks Fizz, winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1981, with "Making Your Mind Up".

[5] Chris Hamill, transformed into Limahl, had a worldwide hit with "Too Shy", with Kajagoogoo in 1983, as well as with his solo record "The NeverEnding Story", the theme song to the film of the same name.

John Humphreys performed at folk clubs and on radio with "Home and Colonial" before returning to his native Canada in 1981.
