The band was most popular during the late 70s and 80s.  The lead singer had
a hit song on the "Running Scared" soundtrack.

response 103 of 644: Mark Unseen   May 2 03:29 UTC 2000

Nope.  'Nother clue.  The band's new name is an object (like "The Beans").
They changed to "The _______" during the late 70s.

Who is The B52s?
(I doubt it, but at least it fits the clues, well, except about Running
Scared, but I can't find ST info on that)

Who are The Doobie Brothers?

Nope...  don't know if I said this.  The lead singer of The ____ had the song
on the "Running Scared" soundtrack.

bad hint, then. Michael McDonald is the only one credited as having a "hit"
on the Running Scared soundtrack, other than Patti LABelle, New Edition, and
Kim Wilde.
And the only band he was involved with in the late 70s/early 80s was The
Doobie Brothers.

okie, more digging, still think it's a misleading hint...

(gods, it's SO hard to get info on STs)

Who are The Tubes?

Who are The Fools?

(Their video for the Roy Orbison cover "Running Scared" was in heavy 
rotation on MTV shortly after they went on the air in August 1981.)

Good questio, Gypsi... er, clue rather.

Annabella got the singing role originally slated for this singer, who may have
felt like he'd been dogged, but went to much higher fame when he joined the
club

Who is Frank Sinatra?
brighn
response 116 of 644: Mark Unseen   May 3 21:33 UTC 2000

no... by singing role, btw, I should clarify: it was one of those "put
together" groups (like The Monkees and Spice Girls), and this singer was
initially hired, then fired, as lead singer, replaced by Annabella

Who is Boy George?
brighn
response 118 of 644: Mark Unseen   May 4 05:06 UTC 2000

*pout* and I had my next clue ready, which was: Both the original group and
the singer's new grop had hits that were questions...

anyway, yeah, Boy George was the first singer hired to sing for Bow Wow Wow.
raven's got it =}

This female singer reveresed the usual trend and had a far more successful
solo career in the late 90 than her career as a vocalist and singer with
an east coast band in the mid 80s through mid 90s.

(Knowing Raven's taste in music, I think that's right, but for what it's
worth....)

Who is Dar Williams?
