      I don't know if that is accurate... They hit it huge with Crazy and Electric Blue. Man of Colours album did quite well in the states. They are by far one of my favorite bands of any decade so naturally I think they should have had number 1 hits with Crazy, Electric Blue, Great Southern Land, and especially No Promises. Still they were very successful.

    Looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you
    This is not the way that I remember it here
    Anyone will tell you its a prisoner island
    Hidden in the summer for a million years
    Great Southern Land, burned you black
    So you look into the land and it will tell you a story
    Story 'bout a journey ended long ago
    Listen to the motion of the wind in the mountains
    Maybe you can hear them talking like I do
    They're gonna betray you, they're gonna forget you
    Are you gonna let them take you over that way
    Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
    You walk alone, like a primitive man
    And they make it work, with sticks and bones
    See their hungry eyes, its a hungry home
    I hear the sound of the stranger's voices
    I see their hungry eyes, their hungry eyes
    Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
    They burned you black, black against the ground
    Standing at the limit of an endless ocean
    Stranded like a runaway, lost at sea
    City on a rainy day down in the harbor
    Watching as the grey clouds shadow the bay
    Looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you
    This is not the way that I remember it here
    Anyone will tell you its a prisoner island
    Hidden in the summer for a million years
    Great Southern Land, in the sleeping sun
    You walk alone with the ghost of time
    Where they burned you black, black against the ground
    And they make it work with rocks and sand
    I hear the sound of the strangers voices
    I see their hungry eyes, their hungry eyes
    Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
    You walk alone, like a primitive man
    You walk alone with the ghost of time
    And they burned you black
    Yeah, they burned you black
    Great Southern Land
