Are you as surprised as me??One of the things my file host does is let me know how many times a particular track has been downloaded. This got in excess of 500 downloads when it was first loaded in November 2009:-
mp3 : The Maisonettes - Heartbreak Avenue
A #7 hit single in December 1982 and a memorable bit of pop music.
Thought I'd dig out some footage this time:-
Rol from the always entertaining Sunset Over Slawit left a comment behind last time out advising that the singer had been part of an earlier band that had enjoyed this hit single:-
I do now remember this now that I've played it again.
A #8 hit in 1978. Hated it then. Hasn't grown a bit on me since.
Oh and here's the b-side of The Maisonettes number:-
mp3 : The Maisonettes - The Last One To Know
Happy Listening.

Incredible - I've had similar randomness. My two heaviest have been Brenda Lee's Walk a Mile in My Shoes - almost 10,000 downloads to date. And this podcast which hit 4000 in less than 3 weeks of posting up.
Great post. Only 4 yrs between the 2 songs here. Seemed much longer.
Have a good weekend folks.
love it.
I downloaded it 499 times
Not again!
My apologies for making you endure 5705 again. (And further apologies for liking it. ;-)
I have that Maisonettes 7". Great track. I believe everything else they did was pants.
