Need help remembering the name of an 80's band

[Shakespeare]

They were fairly awful, and had one big hit called (and I'm spelling this phonetically) "Kir-ee-ay."

My sister is dating a guy who looks just like their lead singer, but I can't remember the band's name for the life of me.

1. Mr. Mister

(i am a fountain of useless 80s knowledge)

:hi:

[Shakespeare]

4. YES! I'm usually a whiz at remembering that stuff, but this one escaped me.

Thanks!! :hi:

[SallyMander]

6. Glad to help

7. Make that two big hits.

They were also responsible for "Broken Wings."

Hi Shake!

8. ...and I like them so much I still have a cd.

Yes, I suck.

[PeaceNikki]

13. I suck worse.

I saw them in concert. In my defense, they opened for Belinda Carlisle.

9. Their drummer went on to play with King Crimson.

He's been with them since the "reunion" in the early 1990s.

10. I like them :blush:

I have the "little record" for that song in my basement. I like Broken Wings too.

[no name no slogan]

12. Give me a laser down the road that I must travel

Give me a laser in the darkness of the night...

For years, I swore that's what they were singing.

[stuntcat]

16. lol

I used to think it was "carry a laser down the road.."

Yeah, carry a laser dude!!! :headbang:

[Aristus]

18. So none of you have ever heard "Kyrie Eleison?"

Greek for "Glory to God."

Maybe not. Not something you hear regularly in chart-topping pop songs...

[stuntcat]

19. um

I had the record (the title printed right there on it, see?) and even us hicks from the sticks all learned what it meant, the fact was pretty much pop culture at the time.

Still I think "carry a laser down the road" is funny!

:party: :party:

14. Which hair? The ones in my nose, ears, my eyebrows? None on the head, so I get a BIG discount.

The conversation is still free at the barbershop.

[Shakespeare]

15. uh......

what?

[triguy46]

17. That's because I posted it on the wrong thread! Whoohoo, gimme another drink!

There was a "Who still get's their haircut" post last night. Man oh man, what a frickin' week.
