Only UK reggae act to get a US billboard number one

This statement doesn't seem to be true. What about UB40's cover of Red, Red Wine? Furby100 03:36, 18 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fuck those honkeys. --71.205.219.29 (talk) 06:43, 6 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

The fact is that UB40 had two #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. The first was a remix of "Red Red Wine" that charted in 1988, topped the chart for one week, and was certified "gold" for US sales of more than 1-million units. The second was their remake of "Can't Help Falling In Love," from the movie "Sliver," that charted in 1993, topped the chart for seven weeks, and was certified "platinum" with US sales of more than 7-million units.

Note that the group was/is interracial and therefore they are not all "honkeys." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.22.47.232 (talk) 08:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

1961 or 1960?

edit

If you look at June 10, under Births you find Mr Priest listed as 1960. This article says 1961. Which is it? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 00:40, 18 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

1961 is correct [1]. Crisso (talk) 12:25, 29 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
