Trying to ID song with "less than zero" in lyrics - Swoopy 80' - 90's sound - Not Elvis Costello

I heard this 80ish - 90ish song playing this afternoon and wanted to followup on it. My goodle fu is weak as all I can get is Elvis Costello’s song. Not Duran Duran, but similar big atmospheric sound.

The refrain “less than zero” is repeated at least twice in the song.

Danzig - you and me(less than zero)?

No, I youtubed that and that’s not it. Thanks for trying though!

Saved by Zero from the Fixx, maybe?

That’s it! Sorry for the false lead. I’m just an old man (whimper).

I googled the meaning and it was kind of interesting.

[double rainbow guy voice]But what does it mean!? [/double rainbow guy voice]

Love that the “The Fixx” fans call themselves “Fixxtures”.

Hazy Shade of Winter, at less than zero from our Mamas and Papas. I know some like jangly bangles to appendage.

This was my first thought also. I grew up in a town where someone had as their phone number XXX-0000 and they had that song on their answering machine…

We went to see The Fixx last summer - they were absolutely excellent, in spite of playing a half-full casino. I’d recommend them to anyone. They hung around and chatted and signed autographs afterwards, too.
