Hi Wiznicks,
what a surprise to see someone from the neighbourhood around.

Tango was huge in Germany and esp. Little lies but the charts are not the only aspect. Back in the day radio airplay didn`t matter when it came to charts positions. Little lies, Big love, Everywhere and Family man got massive airplay. I would say these songs are much more famous or well known than one could guess just looking at the chart positions. One of the big radio stations (WDR 2) still play all of them on a regular basis. I'd say there is not one week, where at least one of those mentioned songs is played. Guess someone over there likes the band or had his first kiss listening to that album or whatever.
