I was going to say Everyday by Buddy Holly, but come to find out it wasn't a glockenspiel, but a celesta, a keyboard with a glockenspiel-like tone.

i agree, i think.

though i do like love my way...i still that first Furs self-titled LP with "we love you" and "india" is a great one...after that, they were OK with an occasional memorable single (Ghost in You, P in P, etc). and then, terrible. even this LP, Mirror Moves produced by Todd Rundgren, is not too great.
