Divinyls rocked one of America’s biggest stages early on… opening the 1983 US Festival on New Wave Day. Chrissy Amphlett looked like a star, but the weird part… after such a huge intro, their breakthrough still took almost another decade. #ChrissyAmphlett #Divinyls #USFestival #OneHitWondered
Divinyls broke through in Australia with songs like their debut single, “Boys in Town,” then kept building across the decade with hits like “Pleasure and Pain.” By then, the Divinyls weren’t just successful, they were a major force in Australian rock… #Divinyls #ChrissyAmphlett #OneHitWondered
The week ending March 30, 1991, Australian rock group Divinyls earned US #OneHitWonder honors when their provocative new wave single “I Touch Myself” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #34. The single spent 12 weeks on the chart, peaking at #4. #Divinyls #ChrissyAmphlett #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
