Men at Work - Business as Usual .jpg) .jpg) .gif) By Billy Altman
Helped immeasurably by the heavy rotation with which its clever videos
were greeted by the then brand-new MTV network, the Australian group Men
at Work were one of the biggest--and least anticipated--success stories of
1982. On the strength of two No. 1 singles, the sax-driven "Who Can
It Be Now" and the geocentric "Down Under," the band's
debut album spent an astonishing 15 weeks at the top of the charts.
Bandleader Colin Hay's Sting-like, reggae-influenced singing was welcomed
by the emerging video music generation--even if they had no idea what a
"Vegemite" sandwich was.
