The 4 Of Us are a rock band from Newry, County Down, Northern Ireland, UK, best known for their output in the late 1980s and early 1990s.〔(24 January 2003). (The 4 Of Us to play Dublin in March ), ''RTÉ.ie''〕〔(5 April 2003). (Just the Four Of Us ), ''Billboard (magazine)''〕 Of the four founding members, only brothers Brendan and Declan Murphy have remained continuously part of the group; the occupants of the other positions have varied. ==History== The 4 Of Us released their first album, ''Songs for the Tempted'', with CBS Records in 1989, with the single ''"Mary"'', becoming one of the most played songs on Irish radio that year. Consequently, the album went double platinum in Ireland and won Best Album of the Year at the Irish Music Awards, defeating the internationally-known act U2. The album ''Man Alive'' followed on Sony/Columbia Records in 1992, and saw the group enter the UK charts for the first time, with the album entering the chart at #64, and the single, "She Hits Me" spending four weeks on the chart peaking at #35.〔(13 March 1993). (Hits of the UK ), ''Billboard (magazine)'' (listing "She Hits Me" debuting at #35 on UK chart)〕 The band then lost momentum scrapping the release of ''Amplifier'', their proposed third long player but released 2 singles "Change (Amplifier Version)" and "Someone's Got To Lose" (Video ), in 1997. They did not separate however, and eventually returned to recording albums, releasing the largely acoustic-based ''Classified Personal'' on the FUTURE INC. label in 1999.〔〔(9 October 2007).
