Haircut One Hundred (also known as Haircut 100) was a pop music band formed… Read Full Bio ↴Haircut One Hundred (also known as Haircut 100) was a pop music band formed in 1980 by Nick Heyward, Les Nemes, Graham Jones, Phil Smith, Mark Fox, and Blair Cunningham, known as one of the forerunners of the popular new romantic movement.

They were successful from the beginning, with their 1981 single "Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)" setting the stage for the breakthrough success of the album 'Pelican West' (1982). The single "Love Plus One" was even bigger than anything previous, and Haircut 100 seemed poised for stardom just as Heyward decided to seek a solo career. The remainder of the band tried to continue with the album 'Paint and Paint' (1984), with percussionist Mark Fox taking over Heyward's vocal duties, but they broke up soon after.

Although somewhat dismissed as a 'one hit wonder' due to the spread of blockbuster hit "Love Plus One", the band proved influential by the late 00s when new wave revivalist bands such as Vampire Weekend and No Kids emerged employing a similar style of preppy, afrobeat-like guitar pop.

I miss the 80s
I miss thinking I have my whole life ahead of me
I miss the innocents
I miss that first grasp of independence
I miss thinking I knew it all
I miss that feeling of thinking about nothing but girls
I miss the first kisses
I miss falling in love for the first time
I miss falling in love for the first time again a month later
I miss never worrying about my health
I miss the times when music moved me
And
I miss my youth

I couldn't agree with you more, Mark Hamer. This great song along with so many other great hits from the '80s definitely sounds much better than a lot of the so-called music we hear today. The music we heard back in the days when "Love Plus One" by Haircut 💯 first came out sounds like music that was properly written, whereas today's pop music sounds more like a random collection of bits & pieces thrown together in just 5 minutes to meet an urgent deadline. Mark Hamer, you sound like you have great taste in music and you know great music when you hear it. Rock on, buddy!!😀🎸😃🎸

I consider myself extremely lucky to have been a kid in the 70's. ..a teenager in the 80's..and a 20something in the 90's...great music to be the soundtrack of my life. Now a dad in his 40's. .the soundtrack of my life is the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme song and Doc McStuffins' "Time for your Checkup" LOL. I'll gladly take it over the S*** called music today.

This is what I loved about the old MTV. Honestly, if it weren't for that channel, I probably never would have gotten the chance to hear bands like this and would have missed out on some great music and likewise, groups like Haircut 100 would not have gotten nearly as much exposure as they did. At least I got a chance to enjoy it when it was still awesome.

@michaeld2519

8y↑5

You are so right! Teenagers these days think being social revolves around cellphones which they are slaves to - without even realising it. They even text each other when they are in the same room! No smartphones, Facebook, twitter, etc was needed in the '80's, and we had even more fun!
