They must've sold millions of records in the 80's, but everyone denies having one of them... Even I do ;D

I've actually got two! "You're My Heart, You're My Soul" and their big UK one, "Brother Louie" (not the Hot Chocolate/Stories song)...
While it's undeniable they've shifted millions of records, their sales were confined mostly to continental Europe where they were huge for several years...as I remember, they were your typical big-haired duo and had a nice line in fake sun-tans...
"Brother Louie" still causes me some problems...I was holdaying in Corfu that year (1986), and the discos there played the thing to death (along with "Spirit In The Sky" - Dr & The Medics, for some reason!) - by the end of the break, I was glad to get home just to get away from it...and then it followed me! No sooner had I unpacked when it had just entered our chart - in the end it reached #4...
As I've said, I've got it - but rarely play it!
Regards...
