157. "Anyone For Tennis" by Men At Work [iTunes? Surprisingly, not that I could find.]
Ah, Men At Work! They started off with two exceptional albums, and it looked like they were going to be musical juggernauts. And then, nothing. Well, not nothing. But, nothing noteworthy after those first two albums. It's too bad, because for a time there it looked like they could be Australia's answer to U2 (if U2 had ever asked Australia a question about bands with lots of promise.)
Of course, this song isn't from either of those first two stellar albums. This song was the "B" side to the single of "Who Can It Be Now?" It might also be etched in your memory as a song that the drill team did a routine to back in the day. I was really surprised that I couldn't find it on iTunes. I would have thought there would be some kind of Men At Work compilation or retrospective that would have gobbled up a great song like this. Instead, you'll have to settle for this YouTube clip: "Anyone For Tennis" by Men At Work. (Thank goodness for YouTube!)
COMING UP NEXT: Apparently, the first 99 weren't good enough.
