40 Holly Johnson - Where Has Love Gone (1wk 40 NEW)

Like a few acts before them in popular music history this is the one song where the act was convinced was going to be a huge defining hit for them, and the public went .... "Nope". Released as the second single from their fourth studio album, Behaviour (1990). The song reached number 20 on the UK Singles Chart, making the duo's first single to miss the top 10 since "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)" in 1986. On many occasions Neil Tennant & Chris Lowe have stated it is their best song they've ever written & recorded. Hence why on their 2021/2 tours it is their final song of their set.
