Bananarama may not have been one of the most successful bands of the 1980s, but it certainly was one of the most 80s bands of the 1980s.

They have a couple of songs that are still iconic to me from my childhood. Listening to them today, I can’t help but notice the limited vocal range across all three members. Still, hearing Cruel Summer is like being plugged in to San Junipero.
The best way I've heard them described is, "A group made up of just background singers".
Yeah, they all sang the same line, and didn’t harmonize (I think).
When I hear Bananarama the song Venus is usually what comes to mind for me
They’ve done a lot of covers. Venus is their most famous for good reason
“Penis” as its also known
