Jesus Jones had their hit single “Real Real Real” in 1991 on SBK. Although the song was first released in 1990, its major U.S. chart success came in 1991, when it reached number four on the Billboard Hot 100.
The track came from the British band's second album, Doubt, which was released in 1991. It followed the group's breakthrough with “Right Here, Right Now,” and its mix of alternative rock, dance energy, and electronic production helped Jesus Jones cross into mainstream pop radio.
The release date can cause confusion: “Real Real Real” appeared as a single in March 1990, before the album's release, and it first charted in the United Kingdom that year. In the United States, however, the song became a prominent hit during 1991. That distinction explains why both 1990 and 1991 may appear in discographies, while 1991 is the expected answer for the hit-single question.
