Icehouse (1981)
Following their signing with Chrysalis Records in early 1981 for the European, Japanese, UK and US releases Flowers had to change their name due to legal restrictions preventing confusion with a Scottish group The Flowers. Therefore when the album was released on the international markets, in June 1981 by Chrysalis, it was released under the band's new name, Icehouse.
Russell Mulcahy, an expatriate Australian living in London, directed the music video for "Icehouse", which was released as a single in Europe and North America. The Top 10 single "Love in Motion" c/w "Goodnight Mr Matthews" was recorded by Davies in London after the band had changed their name from Flowers to Icehouse.
