added Re-release the Song
Added DiffLines:
* RereleaseTheSong: Despite being a British band with an American lead singer, the only place they could initially get a recording contract was in Canada, on a small label that had released music by Rew's previous band, the Soft Boys. After their first two albums gained notice there, Capitol Records signed the band, and their first major-label album was made up of re-recorded or remixed versions of songs off the two Canadian releases.

* LyricalDissonance: "Walking on Sunshine" is actually a plea to a lover to return, and even reads as a borderline ObsessionSong, though the [[ChorusOnlySong chorus]] covers it up a bit.

They recorded a bunch of albums, but the only song that everybody knows is their upbeat 1985 hit single "Walking on Sunshine". They had a few more singles chart, technically saving them from being a OneHitWonder, but nobody remembers them. They suddenly became big again when their song "Love Shine a Light" won the 1997 Eurovision contest and became their biggest hit in the UK, but dissolved a few years later.
