Their 1988 album «If I Should Fall from Grace with God» reached No. 3 on the UK Albums Chart. «Fairytale of New York», recorded as a duet with Kirsty MacColl and released in 1987, peaked at No. 2 in the UK and No. 1 in Ireland, and has returned to the UK Top 40 every Christmas since 2005. Certified 7× Platinum by the BPI, it ranks among the most charted songs in UK chart history with 130 weeks in the Official Top 75 as of January 2026. The Play The Hits Tour delivers exactly what the title promises: seven studio albums worth of material performed live across some of Europe's most storied venues.
