Anyways, for the Aussie band The Church, getting recognition in the United States involved a slow and steady climb. From early on, their records were available on import, and they got airplay on alternative and college radio. But the band's search for major label support in the U.S. led them to associations with a couple of different record companies. It was after the band signed with Arista that they had their most successful release in the states. The album they put out in 1988 was called "Starfish," and while it didn't put them up there with U2 or R.E.M,. they did score their first and only Billboard Top 40 hit. What was the name of the song?
Bonus Question: The 80's band Eurogliders weren't actually from Europe. True, they had an English singer, but the band was formed in Perth, Australia. The one Eurogliders song that made it into the U.S. charts only got to #65, what was the name of this song?
