who knows this song from 1984?

[hsh-on-leine]

Hi there,
on one of my ancient tapes I've found a song where I don't know neither the artist nor the name of the song.
The song reminds of a Stock/Aitken/Waterman production, the singers voice reminds of Rick Astley (who, as far as I know, started up a couple years later).
The hookline of the chorus is something with "Strong hearts"
Some fragments of the lyrics are: strong hearts ... ignition ... don't fear of what has been gone (as far my english is good enough) ... the darkness ease my trouble ... often we have talked ... but we still remain confident and sure ... but this love of mine is true ... skies were falling ... ever we have faced the darkness ... just hold on and I will show to ... but this love of life is young (???) ...

Neither google search nor yahoo search could help me, so I'm asking the people in UK, where I guess, the song has its origin.
I have a 2 min soundfile, taken from that tape, which I've tried to attach. It didn't work but I can send it by email to anyone who's willing to help me.

Thanks for reading and hoping for useful replies,
Heiko

hello Heiko

from what you described it could well be a song from the group "black" whos lead singer sounded very much like rick astley and where from around that time. i am sure i have an album of theirs and i will have a look to see if anything matches up.

kind regards
