Their first single went to #114, their next single #100. The first few weeks it was released it wasn't really noticed, and then a musical guest pulled out of Top Of The Pops (biggest UK music show), so they were called in last minute to replace them. After their performance the song smashed.

also R.I.P. top of the pops even though like 50% of the performances were lipsynced

I'd prolly watch it if it were around today

idk I guess I'm just lowkey sceptic bc of the 80's and all being full of record labels cheating because soundscan hadn't existed
