What is going on here? Am I in some twilight zone? The last time I looked this thread was 1 page ... now it's 14 and some knobhead posted Outkast.
S
Yeah and some guy is going on about thread pages as though he's posting from the mid 2000's.

Always hated this song
More one hit
Is that with a band though?
Yeah. Him and Vince Clarke from Depeche Mode and Erasure fame. Their only release.
Sharkey had a couple of hits on his own.
Never heard any of his other stuff but he was in a band originally wasn't he?
Stock, Aitken and Watermen inflicted a lot of crap music on the world in the 80s, I'm pretty sure they were behind Rick Astley weren't they?
THE UNDERTONES

Unless you're into Bond music I doubt you can name another tune from these Norwegian
Sun Always Shines on TV, Cry Wolf - off the top of my head, they were pretty big in the 80s.
I feel that the fact you know this is somehow connected to the chocolate moccachino.

@Nepia not to mention the guy that had to give that coffee its full name...
Considering he's Aussie based it's odd indeed, but as I found last month in NZ you basically have to say the full name most of the time.

Absolutely.
And 'Sound of the Suburbs' their only track to break the UK Top 20, hence their only hit.

Went back and read the original post, so some didn't meet the criteria.
But without Google and YouTube most wouldn't remember.

@MiketheSnow I feel like you've been in a thread of your own on obscure British songs from the 70s that most of us have never heard of before now.
@Rancid-Schnitzel The girl in that video looked familiar so I went to google and she's the singer from Republica (a 90s band I only remembered when reading the Wiki page).
