UK Number 40s: Thunder - The Devil Made Me Do It (2006)

 


In 2006 I recall a work colleague saying they were going to see Thunder in concert. Then later on in the year after I'd moved jobs and cities there were a few people in this new job who were also going to see Thunder in concert.

My initial thought was oh yes Thunder, the 80s hard rock band. It also made sense to me that people of those work colleagues sort of age were going to see them in concert. Little did I know that Thunder were still having Top 40 hits just about.

I also wasn't really accurate about them being an 80s band either. They did form in 1989 but didn't make their Top 40 debut or release their first album until 1990.

The clocked up a total of 18 Top 40 hits with this being the final one. They also have never charted any higher than 18 and jointly hold the record of most Top 40 hits without a Top 10 with the Super Furry Animals.
