They are to U2 what John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band are to Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

I think they could edge out Big Country in a slow year. Good luck to them.

I'd like to forget "Don't You Forget About Me", but the local radio stations played it so much in the 80's that it's not likely I will. That said, there are a number of other groups that deserve to go in the Hall of Fame before these guys.

don't you forget

great few albums

Yes, they should be in. Songs like "Don't You Forget About Me" and "Alive & Kicking" make them a shoe in for the HOF.

deserve a place in the hall of fame for their work upto 1984.

no

Great 1980s U2 sound-a-like, but not enough momentum to include in the 1st tier. I enjoy their music and own several albums but not even in driving range of the hall.

Basically, one of the worst-sounding (from today's perspective) of all the 1980s bands. they were almost hair metal with a disco beat and religious (listen carefully) lyrics. No way should they get in, and they did so little in the US they are not likely to be considered anyway.

Great band! Alive And Kicking is one of the best songs ever made. They did a whole lot more as well.
