Spys (band)
Spys was an American rock band formed in New York City in 1981 by Al Greenwood and Ed Gagliardi, who had been keyboardist and bassist, respectively, of Foreigner.[1] They signed with EMI Records and released their debut album, Spys, in 1982, produced by Neil Kernon.[1] The album reached #138 on the Billboard 200 chart[2] and the single "Don't Run My Life" reached #82 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #19 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.[3] A follow-up album, Behind Enemy Lines, was released in 1983, but it did not sell well, and after a contract dispute with the label, the group disbanded.[1]

gollark: I see.
gollark: Why a WAV file?
gollark: *Slightly*, not significantly.
gollark: Yes, I saw, but hardcoding the TLD list is inelegant, means you end up being slightly worse for your user's internet connection (if this runs on the client), and is prone to issues if the list updates.
gollark: Maybe `<link>`.
