Biography: Men at Work were one of the more surprising success stories of the new wave era, rocketing out of Australia in 1982 to become the most successful artist of the year. With its Police-styled rhythms, catchy guitar hooks, wailing saxophones, and off-kilter sense of humor, the band's debut album Business as Usual became an international blockbuster, breaking the American record for the most weeks a debut spent at the top of the charts. Their funny, irreverent videos became MTV favorites, helping send "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under" to number one. Men at Work's momentum sustained them through their second album, 1983's Cargo, before the bottom fell out of the band's popularity. After releasing Two Hearts in 1985, Men at Work broke up, becoming one of the better-remembered phenomenons of new wave. Lead singer and founding member Colin James Hay speaks with Shadoe from his US home in Los Angeles. interviews,,podcast madpod@gmail.com no No http://www.madpod.com/show/2009/02/22/bananarama-interview-on-madpodcom/ http://www.madpod.com/show/2009/02/22/bananarama-interview-on-madpodcom/#comments Sun, 22 Feb 2009 23:41:45 +0000 madpod http://www.madpod.com/show/?p=442 http://www.madpod.com/show/2009/02/22/bananarama-interview-on-madpodcom/feed/ 0 23:05 The most successful British girl-group in pop history, Bananarama formed in London in late 1981.

Drawing equal inspiration for their name from the childrens television program The Banana Splits and the Roxy Music song Pyjamarama, the trio comprised lifelong friends Keren Woodward and Sarah Dallin along with Siobhan Fahey, whom Dallin befriended at the London College of Fashion. After getting their start singing at friends parties and at nightclubs (where they performed accompanied by backing tapes * none of the women played their own instruments), they came to the attention of ex-Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook, who produced Bananaramas first single, a cover of Swahili Black Bloods Aie A Mwana. After the group backed Fun Boy Three on the single It Aint What You Do, Its the Way You Do It, the Three returned the favor for 1982s He Was Really Sayin Somethin, a cover of the 1965 Velvelettes song that was the first of Bananaramas 26 U.K. chart smashes. While their initial hits, including Shy Boy, Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye) and Cruel Summer (their first U.S. smash) were roundly dismissed as fluffy pop fare, the success of 1984s rape-themed release Robert DeNiro's Waiting convinced the group to tackle more serious topics; however, the follow-up single, Rough Justice * a song protesting political tensions in Northern Ireland * bombed, and the trios career stalled. In 1986, Bananaramas fortunes improved considerably when they joined forces with the production team of Stock, Aitken #38; Waterman, who produced the album Wow!; the groups most successful outing to date, the LPs cover of the Shocking Blues Venus was an international chart-topper, and both Love in the First Degree and I Heard a Rumour were major hits as well.
