I am pleased to present the best quality copy of this video available. It’s complete and in stereo!
You can read a review of the first Deadline mini-album (from which “Donna (Do You Wanna)” was the single) right here. From Sarnia Ontario, this quartet was primed for the big time but failed to launch. You can tell from this video that they spared no expense in looking and sounding like pros.
This video was recorded from MuchMusic’s Start Me Up program, in early 1993.

Never heard of Deadline before but that song sounded interesting.

They were a great band. I was informed today that the band themselves don’t even own a copy of this album, so I’m glad I do.

Yeah I suppose that investment didn’t have a very good return. However gotta give em credit for really trying.

If only they had brought this out roughly 8 years earlier. They could have rode the wave. In the early 90’s it was more of a ripple.

Yep — I have the same reason why I’m not a famous rock star too! Damn changing waves! ;)

I know right. The people of the 90’s just didn’t understand your attempts at disco resurgance.
