DEF: Howard Jones “New Song”

Southampton, England-born musician Howard Jones hit the Top 40 with nine of the eleven songs he placed on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, with all of those hits appearing on the chart between 1984 and 1992. Jones’ run both on the Hot 100 and in the Top 40 started with “New Song,” which on this date in 1984, climbed to a peak position of number 27, where it would spend one week. “New Song” by Howard Jones is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
