For the Monday Forgotten 45 at 3:45 we go back to the charts on October 19th, 1985 for the Thompson Twins with “Lay Your Hands On Me”.

The English band hit the U.S. top 40 7 times in the 80’s with songs like “Hold Me Now”, “Doctor Doctor” and “King For a Day”. In ’85 they released “Lay Your Hands on Me” a song that their 2nd top 10 hit reaching #6 on the Hot 100. They were a trio until 1986 and performed as a duo for 7 years after that. Lead singer Tom Bailey did some sold tours after that.

An 80’s tune from October of 1985 it’s the Thompson Twins with “Lay Your Hands on Me” it’s today’s Forgotten 45!
