A Pocketful of Dreams is the debut album by English boy band Big Fun.
It was released in 1990 and reached the top 10 of the UK Albums Chart,[1] peaking at No.
The album includes their UK top 40 hit singles "Blame It on the Boogie" (a cover of the Jacksons' 1978 hit), "Can't Shake the Feeling" and "Handful of Promises".
Also included is their cover of "Hey There Lonely Girl", which was released as a single but stalled at No.
A review published in Music Week magazine gave a negative review, stating that "it's a sad indictment of the UK public that such mediocre performances can sell in such quantity", and considered the band's inability to reach the high notes on "Hey There Lonely Girl" as a proof of a "severe lack of talent".
