What song is this riff from?

What's Hot
bingefellerbingefeller Frets: 5723
Originally a synth riff but I transcribed it for guitar.  I've been playing this loads today!

The F# stars on the "and" of 4.   Tempo is around 128 bpm.

    Sounds a bit like Franz Ferdinand "Do you want to"?

    My ability to recognise cheesy 80's pop is almost a superpower.

    A really, really crap superpower. :D

    Was listening to some Kershaw on't' radiogram the other day, was fucking good. I hated '80's music when I was in the '80's, I may have to revisit.

    The extended mix has a big guitar solo from the one and only Alan Murphy at 3:50, which is jaw-dropping.

    I hadn't heard that version before.   Very tasty playing indeed and great tone.
