THE BELLE STARS ACTUALLY FORMED IN 1980. THEIR FIRST SINGLE,"HIAWATHA", AS WELL AS IT'S TWO POST SINGLES FAILED TO CHART. IT WAS THEN THEY STARTED DOING COVER TUNES, TO SEE WHAT THEY WOULD GET REACTION WISE. THEIR FIRST COVER, "IKO IKO", WAS A MINOR HIT WHEN FIRST RELEASED. THE BAND PEAKED WITH THE SINGLE "SIGN OF THE TIMES" IN 1983. AFTER TOURING WITH EMI LABEL MATES MADNESS, THE BAND DISBANDED IN 1984. HOWEVER, WHEN THE SONG "IKO IKO" WAS USED ON THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE 1989 HIT FILM,"RAINMAN", IT BECAME A BIG HIT......5 YEARS AFTER THE BAND BROKE UP. farao
