Real Life
This Australian band formed in the early '80s, had a hugely successful hit in their home land with their debut single Send Me An Angel in 1983. This success was continued in the USA reaching the Top 30 early the next year The group however had difficulties coping with this instant stardom and only managed to consolidate their success in the US with the Top 40 hit Catch Me I'm Falling. Comprising David Sterry (lead vocals), Alan Johnson (bass), Danny Simcic (drums), Steve Williams (keyboards) and Richard Zatorski (violin/keyboards), the band had its image and sound rooted in the British new romantic movement, Spandau Balletand Duran Duran being major influences, and were hence able to sustain their career in dance clubs, both in Australia and the USA.
