Before his actual solo career took off, he was also the singer of the one-shot group The Assembly, with the ex-Yazoo supremo Vince Clarke in 1983 (with their UK singles chart number 4 hit, "Never Never").
His best-known solo material is the 1985 UK chart-topping single penned by Maria McKee, "A Good Heart", which went to number one in several countries. His solo work is significantly different from the semi-punk offerings of The Undertones. He also got a UK number 5 in 1986 with "You Little Thief".
Starting in 1992 Sharkey moved into the business side of the music industry, initially as an A&R manager for Polydor Records and then as Managing Director of EXP Ltd. He was appointed a Member of the Radio Authority for five years from December 1998 to December 2003. He then became Chairman of the UK Government task force the 'Live Music Forum' in 2004.

Feargal Sharkey Lyrics
Blue Days Some days I get out of bed; start a little…
Full Confession This is no time for turning corners I can't hide it…
If This Is Love When I was a young man I guess you could say I…
Let Me Be One of these days I'm going to get up early Organise…
More Love I don't wanna talk about it I don't even wanna hear…
Out of My System Well I'm here waiting for the call you said you'd…
Please Don't Believe in Me Please don't believe in me I'll only let you down Time was…
Safe to Touch I would follow you forever As long as we can be…
Strangest Girl in Paradise Listen for those golden days With precious time unrepentant…
