#6 of DJ Akhu's Top 100 80s Dance Hits Countdown!: 'Bizarre Love Triangle' by New Order (1986)

Ahoy there 80s Fans! Welcome back once again to the Top 100 80's Dance Hits Coundtown! Today I am here to present #6 of the countdown, and the song is...Bizarre Love Triangle, by British new-wave/post-punk/electronic 80s legends New Order. New Order was no doubt one of the most influential musical groups of the 1980s, and they were formed in 1980 in Salford and Macclesfield,England, United Kingdom by former Joy Division band members Bernard Sumner (vocals, guitars, synthesisers), Peter Hook (bass guitar and synths), and Stephen Morris (drums, electronic drums, synths), with the addition of keyboard player keyboard player Gillian Gilbert. New Order are by far one of my top 5 favorite bands of the 80s, and thus they have made it into the top 6! Bizarre Love Triangle was originally released in 1986 on the groups Brotherhood album and it peaked at #1 on the UK Indie Singles chart, #56 on the UK Singles Chart, and #98 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 (upon re-release in 1995). In 2004 Bizarre Love Triangle was ranked #201 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. And so there is #6 for you all! Can you tell I am happy for that one :) Keep your eyes on this space, because the top 5 are coming right you soon!
