- Chart Displacement: Their only UK #1 wasn't "I'm Too Sexy", but third single "Deeply Dippy". This one really is down to a quirk of fate, because "I'm Too Sexy" was by far the bigger seller, but missed out on the #1 spot because it had the bad fortune to be around at the same time as a real monster hit: Bryan Adams' "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You".
- Enforced Method Acting: Richard recorded his vocals for "I'm Too Sexy" in the middle of the night at a studio that he, Fred and their producer had broken into after hours. His hushed vocals were the result of him trying to keep his voice down so they wouldn't get caught by security.
- The Pete Best: Drummer Ray Weston was only with the band for one year before leaving in 1990 to join Wishbone Ash.
- One-Hit Wonder: One of the most famous examples. While they had a few other charting singles in their native UK, they're largely only remembered for "I'm Too Sexy."
