A young Devo used to watch the movie "Hiding out" all the time. I was totally in love with Annabeth Gish, I think it's the fact that she just always looked "obtainable". Regardless, this was the first time that I remember hearing the song "Catch Me I'm Falling" by Pretty Poison.

Devo,
Great choice! I have this on my iPod. Anytime I hear this song, I think about the fact that in April of 1989, Pretty Poison came to my town as the opening act for New Kids On The Block at a roller skating rink!! Unreal! There was maybe 500 people, if that, in attendance!
Unfortunately, I was receiving confirmation that night & was unable to attend the concert . I'm still not quite over this one...lol! By November of 1989, the New Kids exploded & sold out The Spectrum in Philly and I sat in the nosebleed section pining away for Joey McIntyre.
Additionally, Pretty Poison was off the tour, replaced by Sweet Sensation & Dino, and secured their place in history as a one hit wonder.
Needless to say, I didn't catch them before they fell but I still love the tune! Thanks for posting!
