Opus (Austrian band)
Opus is a pop-rock group from Graz, Austria. Formed in 1973, the group remains active today. The band is chiefly known for its 1985 single release, "Live Is Life", which reached the Top 10 in several European countries.
==History==
In 1985, Opus released "Live Is Life," which topped the charts in many countries; it was a #1 hit in Canada for seven weeks in late 1985 and early 1986.〔Lwin, Nanda. ''Top 40 Hits: The Essential Chart Guide'' (2000). Mississauga, Ont.: Music Data Canada〕 A live recording of the song made the Top 40 in the US in 1986. It reached #6 in the UK Singles Chart on August 3, 1985, and stayed in the charts for 15 weeks. The track is popular as a sing-along song for crowds at sports events in Europe.
Another standout track from Opus was the power ballad "Flyin' High," a live version of which appeared both on the ''Live is life'' album, and on their successful US release, ''Up and Down''. At a concert in the mid-1980s, fellow Austrian rock star Falco joined Opus on stage for a rendition of "Flyin' High."
Opus remains active, "Live is Life" remaining its pinnacle release to date. The band also has had success with other songs in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.
