Opal Ocean by The Hadal Zone.
Both Music and Video are 'Fluid'.

The single was performed by The Swingers;
the group's frontman Phil Judd was previously a member of Split Enz.
Although the band had several hit songs in New Zealand,
"Counting the Beat" was their only major chart success in Australia,
and they are considered a one-hit wonder in that country.
The song is well known for its catchy beat and memorable music video.

Wow! I never knew they were Kiwis. Always thought the were British by that song.
Great song, catchy and still played on radio stations to this day.

It was all tied up with Split Enz & Crowded House -
a group of Kiwi guys who knew each other and together and apart composed and performed some amazing songs.

This is a great clip:

I'm sure it is. Not a Beatles fan though. Them and Rolling Stones - I change the radio station.

Top 100 Best Selling Albums of All Time

[Jasin]

Pretty interesting. Just goes to show how many older and wider genres of music have really been popular, even more so than mainstream.
But I tend to wonder about 'sales' statistics as if they were Tree Rings?
I mean, the 'population' doubles in a few decades, so there's more 'sales' there for the latest, more than oldest on the 'immediate' and the bias of older albums with their culminative sales over the decades over the latest.

I guess there is only one way to tell if the music or album is good.
...it's still getting played like some Mozart or Holst today and is still functional to mix with today like William Barton to the latest Sci-Fi theme.

So Whitney Houston is the Queen. Michael Jackson is the King
and Fleetwood Mac are the Princes and Princess.
