Talk:Sad Café

message: I have never heard of this band called Sad Cafe, but I came here looking for a song I recalled being played on the radio called "Take Me to the Future". I found lyrics for the song and its attributed to Sad Cafe on Lyric Genius. This would have been their only hit that was played in the USA on the radio, so why is the song not mentioned anywhere in the article? It could be that this is not really their song? I would have added the song myself if I was sure it was correctly attributed to them. So if this was their song I assume it was not a hit in the UK because the article is heavily leaning on Manchester and Top of the Pops. Ty78ejui (talk) 14:28, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: That song is from their third album Facades (1979) and was not released as a single. It also appeared on the live album Live in Concert and on the compilations The Best of Sad Café, Everyday Hurts: The Best of Sad Café and The Masters. Only two singles and three albums charted in the U.S. including Facades, all with very low chart positions. Hiddenstranger (talk) 15:30, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

message: Where does the band's unusual name come from? Listening to Paul Simon's song Bleecker Street, I notice that the phrase occurs there. Did the band pick up the name from Simon's song? MirkMeister (talk) 22:18, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

message: User 2a02:c7c:9419:d300:2d8a:6bc7:baf4:25a1 seems to be changing the members section saying that Ian Wilson and Sue Quin have left the band. this stems from their website where their pictures aren't listed as they previously have been and from pictures from facebook but in recent articles https://www.hertsad.co.uk/news/23278283.sad-cafe-play-harpendens-eric-morecambe-centre/ and https://www.thescarboroughnews.co.uk/whats-on/arts-and-entertainment/eighties-pop-group-sad-cafe-due-to-play-whitby-pavilion-gig-heres-where-you-can-get-tickets-3983026 they are listed as members. From what I can see their hasn't been any statement from the band so the current line-up is unknown. 80s Sam (talk) 18:22, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
