Johnny Come Home

Johnny Come Home

"Johnny Come Home" is the debut single release by British band Fine Young Cannibals, taken from their debut album "Fine Young Cannibals".

It is similar to the style of many other of the band's hits, a mixture of rock and ska with Roland Gift's distinctive vocals. It was released in 1985 and is one of the group's most popular hits.

Although it failed to reach the Top 40 in the United States, peaking at #73, it was a good start for the group in their native United Kingdom, peaking at #8 on the UK Singles Chart. It also reached #9 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart in the US.
