Sham 69 - Tell the Children - 1980

Sham 69 formed in 1976 and were one of the more famous street punk oi bands of the era. Their biggest hit If the Kids are United broke the top ten in the UK singles charts in 1978 but has since then become even bigger by appearing in a couple of different commercials and by being covered by a whole bunch of bands. The single Hersham Boys was actually a bigger seller and went up to #6 in 1979.

Tell the Children weren't a major success though. The main reason is that it's not that great of a song. ;)
