The English band Dead or Alive released "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" in late 1984 as a single from their second studio album, Youthquake. It was the lead single for the record, but other official singles included "Lover Come Back to Me," "In Too Deep," and "My Heart Goes Bang (Get Me to the Doctor)."
Because of this song, many people believe the band to be a one-hit wonder. But they actually had one other song, "Brand New Lover," break into the Top 20 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Meanwhile, Dead or Alive had multiple hit songs in the U.K. throughout the '80s, including "Something in My House," "Lover Come Back to Me," and "Turn Around and Count 2 Ten."
Singer Pete Burns was upset that "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" became a No. 1 hit in the U.K. In an interview he gave shortly before his death in 2016, he admitted, “One of the unhappiest days of my life was when Spin Me reached No.1 – and I mean really unhappy. Because I knew it would be downhill all the way after that.”
