Century

Century were a French rock band formed in Marseille in 1979. Led by singer and composer Jean-Louis Milford, Century are probably best known for their single "Lover Why" from the album ...And Soul It Goes from 1986. In Brazil, the track "Lover Why" was included in the Globo TV soap opera Ti Ti Ti’s soundtrack (aired from 1985 to 1986) and "Gone with the Winner" was in the soundtrack to Hipertensão (1986–87). As it was the case in that country, that guaranteed both songs would become hits in the Brazilian music charts.

"Lover Why" peaked at #1 in France for seven weeks and also in Portugal, while reaching #11 in Switzerland. Their second single, "Jane" peaked only at #35 in France. Century has sold over ten million copies worldwide.
