About this item

"Precious Little Diamond" is a song by Dutch band Fox the Fox, originally released in 1984. The single became a hit in Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, the UK, and the US. George Michael was a huge fan of the song and introduced the band to CBS Records in 1984. Dieter Bohlen from Modern Talking has been cited with this song as the inspiration for using falsetto choruses in his songs. In 2013, the song was sampled in The Weeknd's song "Wanderlust".

STAFF COMMENTS

Mine says: When I asked for opinions on whether selling this in the shop might possibly raise some eyebrows I was surprised (or should I say shocked and ashamed) to discover that none of my colleagues seemed to have even heard of it. Whaaaaaaat? Obviously I went ahead and ordered it because it's a stone cold banger - and will sit nicely in our (still fairly new) 80s section.
