BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986
Happy New Years Eve!
“Everybody Have Fun Tonight” is a song by Wang Chung from their album Mosaic. It was released as a single in 1986, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, behind “Walk Like an Egyptian” by The Bangles.
After their breakup in 1991, Wang Chung reunited in 2005 to perform this song on the television show Hit Me Baby One More Time.
The song is featured on numerous 1980s compilation albums and still receives some radio airplay across the United States.
It has appeared in the “#2s” episode of VH1 Classic’s One Hit Wonders series, even though the band had one more top 10 single, “Let’s Go”, in April 1987.
