DEF: Tom Tom Club “Genius Of Love”
In 1981, Talking Heads members Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz formed the band Tom Tom Club, which has released six studio albums in the time since its formation. In all that time, the band appeared on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart just once, though that song reached the Top 40.
On this date in 1982, Tom Tom Club’s “Genius Of Love” rose to a peak position of number 31, where it would spend two weeks. Tom Tom Club’s “Genius Of Love” is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
