The track was originally released in 1981 on the album Talk Talk Talk.
In 1986, movie director, John Hughes, named his movie "Pretty In Pink" after the track. The film, an American high school romantic comedy, became a cult classic and centered around teenage love and social circles. It starred Molly Ringwald and Andrew McCarthy.
The song was re-recorded by The Psychedelic Furs for the film and was included on the original sound track to the movie. The re-released track reached number 18 in the UK (compared to number 43 for the original 1981 release) and number 41 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
