Saw UB40 live many years ago. They absolutely milked Red Red Wine for all it was worth. Walked out before the end of the show. Shame, as I'm quite partial to a bit of reggae.

It’s remarkable how many “hits” they actually had - was surprised
We listen to Popmaster each day at work, 3 hits in 10 seconds is the final test. The number of hits certain artists have is quite staggering at times. Nothing singers or bands having 30+ hits, yet I can not name more than 1.

To be fair, UB40 had hits at a time when you had to sell a lot of records to chart. They are genuine.

In fairness to Kim Wilde so far there’s only been one song I didn’t know. I was an 80s kid though which does go in my favour.
