Friday lost and found: The Sunnyboys' 'You Need a Friend'
Perhaps the most egregious mistake on Lost and Found so far has been the absence of Australian videos. I will shout from the rooftops for my love of Australia in the ‘80s and vow to rectify my shortcomings by featuring The Sunnyboys' You Need a Friend.
Hailing from Sydney, The Sunnyboys named themselves after an Australian orange-flavored ice treat that was popular in the ‘80s. The Sunnyboys scored a few hits in their native land, including You Need a Friend, which landed them a 1982 appearance on Countdown (Australia’s equivalent to American Bandstand). The band never reached the states and have broken up and reunited multiple times.
