Formed in 1980, this British Pop band hit the UK charts in 1983 with their single Relax, which eventually sold over 1 million copies in 1984. At the same time of the song's release, the band's promotional director had t-shirts made that read "Relax" and "Frankie Says..." which eventually became a trend in the UK, and later in the US. But as quickly as FGTH became big, they faded away, releasing a second album in 1986 that was not nearly as popular.
