"We Can Get Together" is the second single released by the Australian rock band Flowers, later known as Icehouse.[1][2] It was released in September 1980, on the independent label Regular Records from their first album, Icehouse, two weeks before the album itself was released.[1] It peaked at #16 on the Australian Kent Music Report Singles Charts.[3]

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.[1][4] "We Can Get Together" was released in the UK on Chrysalis in 1981 under the band name Icehouse as both a 7" and 10" vinyl single and later in the US as a 7" single.[1] A remix version by sonicanimation was released on the Icehouse album Meltdown in 2002.[5]

Reception

In a single review Cash Box magazine said the group "can sound an awful lot like Television's Tom Verlaine at times here or an upbeat Gary Numan."[6]
