🎵 The Soup Dragons; Junior Reid - I'm Free
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialAs mentioned in the advert, The Soup Dragons interpretation of the Stones’ “I’m Free,” (with a lil’ Donovan for flavoring and featuring Junior Reid) was their biggest hit in the UK, topping out at #5 on the UK chart… it stalled at #79 in the US. #TheSoupDragons #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialBy the late '80s/early '90s, the UK music scene shifted toward the Madchester/baggy sound... The Soup Dragons leaned right into it, swapping their buzzsaw guitars for some funky basslines, dance beats, and gospel vocals. #TheSoupDragons #OneHitWondered
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialYep… The Soup Dragons were featured on the original C86 compilation. Their track "Pleasantly Surprised" appeared on Side One of the cassette, between The Mighty Lemon Drops & The Wolfhounds. #NewMusicalExpress #TheSoupDragons #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialThe Soup Dragons started out making fast, guitar-driven pop... part of the UK's mid-80s ‘C86’ indie-pop scene that was defined by fast, jangly guitars & DIY energy. Early singles like “Whole Wide World” built them a following on the UK independent scene. #TheSoupDragons #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialThe week ending September 19, 1992, Scottish alt-rockers The Soup Dragons earned US #OneHitWonder honors when their sleek, hooky “Divine Thing” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #38. The single spent four weeks on the chart, peaking at #35. #TheSoupDragons #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
