already a hit, is musically even better than the first, and has already yielded a hit single of its own, "What About Love." The elements are there: a basic, melodic pop sound with some slick '80s touches; a range of songs and moods; a striking female lead at a time when women are doing very well in pop music. So it's a little hard to figure out why 'Til Tuesday isn't bigger yet. Maybe the songs or the music are a touch intellectual, which isn't Top-40's favorite concept On the other hand, maybe there's nothing to figure out After all, they've been national for less than two years, and have already established a solid base of success.

With a big promotional push and a title tune that succeeded both as song and video, things went well. The band appeared poised.

And still does.
