Are Hellogoodbye and The Housemartins both rock bands?
The Housemartins The Housemartins were an English Alternative rock band formed in Hull who were active in the 1980s. Many of the Housemartins' lyrics were a mixture of Marxist politics and Christianity, reflecting singer Paul Heaton's beliefs at the time (the back cover of "London 0 Hull 4" contained the message, "Take Jesus – Take Marx – Take Hope"). The group's cover version of the Isley Brothers' "Caravan of Love" was a UK Number 1 single in December 1986.
Me and the Farmer "Me and the Farmer" is a single by British Indie rock band The Housemartins from the album "The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death". It reached #15 in the UK singles chart the week of 12 September 1987. The song had been written some 18 months previously, on 22 January 1986 (the same day as "Happy Hour").
