HELP ME--I'm trying to remember an 80s one-hit wonder...
All I can remember is the artist's first name, which is Robbie. He had long, curly hair....performed kinda sexy pop tunes in the mid 80s.

AND I CAN'T REMEMBER HIS NAME, AND IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE.

Thank you. :silly:

1. Robbie DuPree
He had a hit with "Steal Away", and a few others.

Could it be him?

3. THAT'S IT!
You've saved me from hours of going crazy over that one. Here's what triggered it: saw Richard Marx on the grammys, remembered his song "Don't Mean Nothin'," which has a groove quite similar to "C'est la Vie," and I found myself wondering whatever happened to that guy.....

Thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you.

4. You are very welcome :)
" C'est La Vie " is one of my favorite songs . I remember running around the house singing at the top of my lungs when I was a kid . :hi:
