DEF: America “The Border”

London-based band America hit Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart 17 times, spanning a time period of a little over a decade from 1972 to 1983. America’s final appearance on the Hot 100, with “The Border,” also earned the band the last of their 11 Top 40 hits. On this date in 1983, “The Border” climbed to a peak position of number 33, where it would spend three weeks. Today, “The Border” by America is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
