FLASHBACK: TWO OF HEARTS - STACEY Q.

In 1986 Stacy Q released one of the most infectious and recognizable hits of the 80s, Two of Hearts. The song is bright, bouncy and soooooo much fun. The song rose to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was also a success in Australia where it reached #7 on the ARIA chart. This song was so popular that Stacey even landed a role on The Facts of Life playing Cinnamon, a singer Tootie was competing with to get a part in a Broadway show. (Because obviously if you wanted to be on Broadway you would sing a breathy pop song...duh!) Anyway, I am STILL to this very day obsessed with this song and when it comes on my iPod I always have to play it again at least once, and by once I mean thrice!! While Stacey Q had a couple of other hits (We Connect [#35] and Don't Make a Fool of Yourself [#66]) she never quite connected to the broad audience she reached with Two of Hearts. Doesn't matter. People still love this song today. Here is TWO OF HEARTS!!!
