Fun Fact: Muse frontman Matt Bellamy is the son of George Bellamy, who was the rhythm guitarist for the English band The Tornados who had the early 1960s mega hit “Telstar” (https://youtu.be/T1HAeNHxUis?si=z79oyoUDvBpR-RDP) You can hear some influence from that song in Muse’s 2006 song “Knights of Cydonia” (https://youtu.be/GjXWtEqs8I4?si=A_QhgrRoENHBORaM)

On December 22, 1962 the #Tornadoes became the first British group to have a #1 record in the US when they hit the top with “Telstar.” The song was named after the world's first communication #satellite launched by the US earlier in the year and preceded the #Beatles chart debut by 13 months.
