The Plimsouls - “A Million Miles Away” (1983)

The band achieved its greatest notoriety in 1983 when the single release “A Million Miles Away” was included on Valley Girl’s motion picture soundtrack and became a minor hit. It is also included on the Speed motion picture soundtrack. The band, which also appeared on camera in the movie (Valley Girl), performing the song and parts of two others, quickly re-recorded the song for inclusion on a second album, Everywhere At Once, produced by Jeffey Rich, but broke up shortly after.
