Fairground Attraction – Perfect

“Perfect” – Single by Fairground Attraction from the album The First of a Million Kisses. B-side “Mythology”, “Falling Backwards”, “Mystery Train”. Released 21 March 1988

“Perfect” is the debut single by the English folk and soft rock band Fairground Attraction, written by Mark E. Nevin. Released on 21 March 1988 by RCA, the single reached number one in the United Kingdom on 14 May 1988, where it stayed for one week.

The song didn’t really take hold in the U.S. until the fall, when it managed to make appearances on three different Billboard charts: the Hot 100, the newly established Modern Rock Tracks tally, and, somewhat perplexingly, the Hot Country Singles roundup.

Bass player Simon Edwards played the guitaron (a Mexican acoustic bass) on this song.

In 1989 this won a Brit Award for Best Single while in the same year First of a Million Kisses won the Brit Award for the Best Album.
