Your old stars country

[marlyly 186]

3 days ago I was watching a french movie called "star 80".

The main was subject was a show with all the 80's french singers.

 

After that I was wondering :

 

Most of those singers are seen as "not famous anymore" (even if they manage to make an incredible comeback). Some are still famous, the best example would be Patrick Hernandez and his "Born to be alive", but the most must only be famous in France, and had a very brief life as stars (most of them only made 1 single).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do you have in your country culture similar cases, those singers pretty much everyone know, consider as "has been", but still enjoy from time to time ?
