Level 42 are an English band, who had a number of UK and worldwide hits during the 1980s and 1990s.

Their most successful single in the UK was "Lessons in Love", which reached number three on the UK Singles Chart, and number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, upon its release in 1986. The earlier single, "Something About You" was their most successful single in the United States, reaching number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

After much success as a live and studio band in the 1980s, Level 42's commercial profile diminished during the early 1990s following a series of personnel changes and musical shifts. After disbanding in 1994, the band reformed in 2001.

"Children Say" is a song written by Mark King, Mike Lindup and Phil Gould. It was released as a single in 1987 by British band Level 42, from the studio album Running in the Family. After a series of successes with the hits "Lessons in Love", "Running in the Family", "To Be With You Again" and "It's Over", the band decided to issue "Children Say" as their last single of 1987. The song was more successful than expected in the Netherlands, and it also made the top 30 in the United Kingdom.

"Running in the Family" is a single released in 1987 by the British band Level 42, from the album Running in the Family. The song had different lyrics when sung at the Wembley Arena in 1986 (this can be found on YouTube). It was then popped up for the release of the single which had significant success, reaching #6 on the UK Singles Chart and #9 in New Zealand,  but only reaching #83 in the United States. It was part of a series of single successes by the group and brought Level 42 fame in countries where they were previously little-known, such as the United States, Germany and Norway.

Some of the 7 inch versions pressed in the UK had a fault, as when a customer bought the record, the record would skip various times. This was soon corrected when a set of 7 inches were released without these faults during its chart run.
