DEAD OR ALIVE
- ️Sat Jun 04 1983
Dead Or Alive were an English pop band formed in 1980 in Liverpool by lead singer, songwriter and and eye-patch fan Pete Burns (born August 5, 1959 in Port Sunlight, Cheshire – died October 23, 2016). Dead Or Alive formed from the ashes of Nightmares In Wax, with the key hit line-up comprising of Burns, Mike Percy (bass), Steve Coy (drums) and Tim Lever (keyboards). Dead Or Alive released a handful of indie singles, but had their big chart breakthrough in 1985 when they were the first group to take a Stock Aitken and Waterman composition and make it a UK Official Singles Chart Number 1 with You Spin Me Round (Like A Record). Dead Or Alive sold over 50 million records worldwide and ceased to be after Pete died in 2016.
