Yeah I was just taking a stab at that, hence “probably”. I haven’t looked at the actual billboard charts for 1979 in a very long time. I just remember stuff like Journey, Foreigner, and Styx was really popular on American FM radio at the time. Also, disco was still very popular that year. I remember that Donna Summer had a few big hits, and there was stuff like Gloria Gaynor, Chic, and Anita Ward. All I know is that while Lene Lovich was doing very well in places like Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and the UK... she didn’t even crack the top 100 in her own home country... where the charts were bogged down by disco and bad rock. I never cared much for ‘My Sharona’, though that first Knack album had some other real power pop gems on it, like ‘Let Me Out’.

Although technically its new wave which spread late 70s and 80s so the sound is similar and the sound is different from most 70s and this single was rereleased in 80s

1979 was a BLAST !!! I totaled TWO vehicles that year. Almost died twice. I was both 18 and 19. Yet, here I am in XXMMIII...killing it!🚑

I love Lena's counterpartner. The post-post-post punk artist Nina Hagens. I remember in the early 1980's KROQ radio station (Los Angeles, California) would play their music often.

I met my wife to this song. It was used in ice speed skating. She skated by and her blonde hair and tight black jeans... That was 1979, now it's 2023 and we've been married for 43 years. But we can't ice skate anymore....lol

It's been so many years since I had heard this great jewel from my 80's. Thank you very much for having them in your favorite songs and for that I could listen to it again. I am 55 and very happy
