"Warnings Moving Clockwise" is the third single by Australian rock/pop group Do-Re-Mi released by Virgin Records in December 1985 from their Domestic Harmony album.[1][2] All three tracks were written by lead vocalist Deborah Conway, drummerDorland Bray, bass guitarist Helen Carter and guitarist Stephen Philip.[3][4] First single "Man Overboard" had been a surprise top 5 hit,[5][6][7][8] but "Warnings Moving Clockwise", which was also produced and engineered by Gavin McKillop, did not have any chart success.[1] When "Man Overboard" was released as a single in UK in 1986, the B-side was "Warnings Moving Clockwise".
Background
Do-Ré-Mi had formed in Sydney in 1981 when Deborah Conway (lead vocals) and Dorland Bray (drums, percussion, backing vocals), both previously in Melbourne-based group The Benders, joined Helen Carter (bass, backing vocals) ex-Friction.[4] Stephen Philip (guitar), ex-Thought Criminals, was initially a studio musician for their debut EP, Do-Ré-Mi released in August 1982 and was asked to join formally.[2] They returned to the studio almost immediately and recorded The Waiting Room EP which was released in January 1983. "Man Overboard" was released as a single in June 1985, from Domestic Harmony on Virgin Records, and peaked at #5 on the Australian singles charts.[5] The follow-up single from the same album, "Idiot Grin", was less successful than "Man Overboard" peaking at #43, and "Warnings Moving Clockwise" had even less chart success.[1]
