Dead or Alive

Dead or Alive is a British New Wave Band formed in Liverpool in 1980.

The band had two hits that charted in the US during the mid 1980’s.

The single “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” peaked at #11 on the Billboard Top-40 Charts in 1985, while the single “Brand New Lover” peaked at #15 in 1986.

The band had a total of 7 Top-40 hits on the British Charts during their career.

The band released 7 Studio Albums.

The band, fronted by androgynous lead singer Pete Burns, is still together after 30 years.

The trademark eye patch Burns wore in many of the groups videos..was just a fashion statement. His eyes are fine.

Burns also publicly accused Boy George of copying HIS style and unique image.

In a total shocker given his current physical appearance, Pete Burns admits to having undergone a “ton” of cosmetic surgery over the course of his career. (Wow! I Would have never suspected as much…)

(Yes…it’s the same guy……honest…)
