Red Box

Red Box has a hit, released in 1985. +It is missing here... Are we happy? Are we scared? Are we shouting, never heard? Are we running, running brave? Are we fighting, making waves?

No, Red Box had a hit with "Lean On Me (Ah-Li-Ayo)" (look it up on Wikipedia)

That is not the same title at all.
