And went for Falco because it's a nice little song, and a "different" pick. :)

Nothing here comes quite close to "West End Girls".

Bobbysox as per the Eurovision?

One of them looked like Sandi Toksvig. Or was it both of them?

Stars – Hear’n’Aid

Blimey, this was a hit somewhere?

Bobbysox as per the Eurovision?

Yes, this was the only other hit they had.

Actually no wonder it was huge here. Hard rock (or medium hard rock, more like) has always had a faithful market in Norway. Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Kiss, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Bon Jovi and Metallica have always had an unusually faithful fanbase here.

Weird in how both these polls I've been voting for my 4th-6th favorite track in the US poll. :P
