Number 172: The Church - Under The Milky Way

Aussie band The Church had one big international hit, and this is it. "Under The Milky Way" was the first single off their 1988 album Starfish. Formed eight years previously, Steven Kilbey and crew had labored along, touring and releasing LPs, with few except a small but devoted fanbase actually noticing. Then "Under The Milky Way" cracked the top 40 in multiple countries, leading to the band touring internationally and gaining fans the world over. Still together today, The Church's biggest hit is at #172 on my Top 200.
