Feature 80's Song of the Week = 'Midnight Man' by Sandra (1986)
This week's featured 80's song is....Midnight Man by German 80's pop singer/songwriter Sandra. Sandra Ann Lauer (born May 18th, 1962 in Saarbrücken, Germany) got her start as the lead singer of the all female disco trio Arabesque from 1979-1984 until 1985 when she started a solo career with her former husband Michael Cretu as the manager, composer, and producer of her 1st international single hit titled (I'll Never Be) Maria Magdalena. Sandra was most popular in Europe, Brazil, Egypt, Sweden, Japan, Israel, Russia, France, and South Africa in the 1980's and early 1990's (and still is well known), and she produced 18 Top 20 Hits between the years of 1985-1992. The featured song, Midnight Man, was released on her second studio album in August, 1986 titled Mirrors. The single would peak at #8 on the Dutch Mega Top 100, #33 on the Italian Singles chart, #13 on the Swedish Singles chart, and #24 on the German Singles chart. And there is the song for this week...there may be a second for this week but I haven't decided yet.
