People either forget, or aren’t actually aware of Thin Lizzy’s success as a major pop charting act. In a career that spanned the ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s, they were one of the first pop/rock crossover bands that featured regularly in the charts but still retained a totally credible hard-rock reputation, long before bands such as Guns ‘n’ Roses and Bon Jovi. Below are the singles, their year of release and chart position, starting with the highest: Single (release year) Chart Position Out In The Fields (1985) 5 Whiskey In The Jar (1972-73) 6 The Boys Are Back In Town (1976) 8 Waiting For An Alibi (1979) 9 Parisienne Walkways (1979) 10 Killer On The Loose (1980) 10 Don't Believe A Word (1976) 12 Do Anything You Want To (1979) 14 Dancin' In The Moonlight (1977) 14 Killers Live E.P.
