- ditto watching Top of the Pops & reading Smash Hits. It also saw the launch of the Now Thats What I Call Music series. In the States the arrival of MTV helped usher in what became known as the Second British Invasion echoing the success of the Beatles twenty years earlier. Wired For Sound tells the remarkable story of the great eighties British bands (and Kajagoogoo) & how their music captured the nations imagination: the more radical beginnings in the early eighties (the new romanticisms of Duran & Spandau the protest pop of early Wham!); the full pomp of their mid-eighties success (the worldwide tours the glamorous video shoots the ubiquitous Choose Life & Relax T-shirts); & their fall from the top of pops pedestal (the splitting up of Wham! Boy Georges drug problems). Wired for Sound will describe the subsequent descent to Band Aid II (Bros Wet Wet Wet Stock Aitken & Waterman) which bookended the low point of the pop music that followed. Wired For Sound will be the affectionate celebration of both a musical youth & the era when young guns went for it. This is a book for anyone who grew up reading Smash Hits soundtracked their teenage years on C90 cassettes & remembers a time when it really mattered who was number one.
