Half a minute - Matt Bianco

'Half a minute' was the third single taken from Matt Bianco's debut album 'Whose side are you on' (1984). The video was on television almost daily in 1984, when the single came out. It reached no. 23 in the UK singles chart, but it didn't make the Dutch Top 40.

I found the 12" single in London and bought it because it was very cheap. It should be: the sleeve was torn and folded, and the disc wasn't in the best condition. But I was curious to find out what the extended version was like. It's still a lovely, summery song.

My collection: 12" single no. 431

Found: Big Company records, London, 2001

Cost: 50p

Tracks: 'Half a minute (extended version)' / 'Matts Mood I', 'Matts Mood II'
