Wonderland (XTC song)


"Wonderland" is a single by XTC released in June 1983, written by Colin Moulding and taken from the album Mummer.
Unlike most of XTC's work - which usually features a more guitar-oriented sound - "Wonderland" is heavily laden with synthesizer textures, most of which came from a Prophet-5.
This was the only single issued in the U.S. by Geffen Records from the album.
A promotional music video was directed by Peter Sinclair.
This is one of the songs from the Mummer sessions to feature drummer Terry Chambers prior to his departure from XTC.
Andy Partridge has subsequently described "Wonderland" as one of Moulding's "most beautiful melodies".
