Well He Was Ahead Of The Curve Anyway

"Give" repeated its chart-topping success in the United States, crowning the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks beginning March 12, 1988. "It was amazing to turn up in a country that I knew nothing about," Astley says of his American welcome. "I was No. 1 and everybody knew me."
