ieatcrayonz Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 70's, actually. By the '80s, the Merchant Marine had access to better satellite data, and didn't need to resort to light pop-rock for weather forecasts. Barret left The Fixx just after the recording of their first album, Shuttered Room, in 1982. This album featured the band's initial hits, "Stand or Fall" and "Red Skies," both of which charted in the US and the UK. The band found particular success in Canada, where "Stand or Fall" was an immediate top 10 hit. PWNED!!!!!!

So just excuse the !@#$ out of me for assuming you were a better troll than you actually are, !@#$. You have a good point. Maybe Yukon Jimmy can do a mash up of the two songs. I also found this interesting on The Fixx: The band found particular success in Canada, where "Stand or Fall" was an immediate top 10 hit. Who could have guessed that a song about trying to stay upright while drunk would be a big hit in Canada? :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
