Mark Drower and the Everyones: global Top Ten hit on HearThis

A global Top Ten hit for Mark Drower and the Everyones on HearThis! Amazing!

We received an unexpected email from HearThis a few days ago, congratulating Mark Drower and the Everyones. Mark‘s beautiful song I Know I Know You was the 10th most streamed song in the Acoustic section of that platform – in the whole world! We were chuffed to bits and the three of us present did a happy dance together.

A global Top 10 hit for Mark Drower and the Everyones! I Know I Know You hits the charts 43 years after it was recorded.

In nearly 42 years of inflicting our music on a largely bewildered world, we have never had a global Top 10 hit before. It’s true that Dark Company charted in Spain in 1994 with their song Medicines from the Rage in Heaven album, and Pok went viral when he sang his song Pixie People by the Spacegoats on The Ali G Show in 1999, but neither instance was global.

So once again, many congratulations to Mark Drower and the Everyones! \,,/(^_^)\,,/

I Know I Know You is the opening track on the EP The Blaze Tape. During the adaptation of the play Everyone by Frederick Franck, it had the working title “Friends”, as it came at the end of the scene where Everyone was let down by his Friends.

The Blaze Tape was recorded 43 years and one week ago today at Blaze Recording Studios in Torquay, and released 43 years ago today. So to finally receive an accolade like this is fabulous. What an anniversary!
