Naked Eyes, a prominent figure in the synth-pop movement of the early ’80s, originated in Britain in 1981. The group was formed by Pete Byrne (vocals) and Rob Fisher (keyboards), who were former schoolmates. Their first album, Burning Bridges, was released in March 1983 and later reissued in the U.S. under a self-titled version, gaining popularity with the lead single, a striking rendition of the classic ‘Always Something There to Remind Me’ by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. This single achieved significant success on both sides of the Atlantic, notably reaching the Top Ten in the U.S. propelled by its widely broadcast music video on MTV. Despite this early triumph, their subsequent album ‘Fuel for the Fire’ in 1984 faced commercial challenges, with its main single ‘(What) In the Name of Love’ barely making it into the Top 40. The group eventually disbanded, and in 1988, Rob Fisher reemerged as one half of the pop duo Climie Fisher. Tragically, Fisher passed away on August 25, 1999, due to complications following stomach surgery, leaving behind a musical legacy.
