A Flock Of Seagulls were another one-hit wonder band of the new-wave era. Their biggest hit was indeed I Ran (So Far Away), reaching the american top 10; they didn't even make it to the top 40 in the UK. A then very young MTV put the video for I Ran in heavy rotation, which is probably the biggest reason why it caught on in the States. Their subsequent albums didn't do much on the charts, but were very popular in underground new-wave clubs. Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You) and Space Age Love Song also were relatively succesful singles.
About the haircuts: Well, who would have guessed, Mike Score the lead singer and Frank Maudsley the bassist were indeed hairdressers; that's how they met.
Members: Mike Score (lead vocals, keyboards), Ali Score (drums, and Mike's brother), Frank Maudsley (bass) and Paul Reynolds (guitar).
Personal recommendation: Get "Listen", their second album, or "A Flock Of Seagulls", their debut. And don't listen to the lyrics. They're just awful.
