Aug 1975 - Bee Gees - " Jive Talkin' " Sept 1976 - Bee Gees - "You Should Be Dancincg" As the Bee Gees and Olivia were born in the UK, the answer may be Air Supply, who had their first No. 1 hit a year before Men At Work: Jul 1981 - Air Supply - "The One That You Love" Oct 1982 - Men At Work - "Who Can It Be Now?"
