  • The Flying Pickets est un groupe de chanteurs britanniques se produisant a cappella, créé en 1982. Leur nom, « les piquets volants », fait référence aux grèves des mineurs anglais des années 1970 auxquelles les six membres originaux du groupe avaient participé. Les six membres initiaux du groupe étaient des acteurs de théâtre qui faisaient partie de la scène théâtrale avant-gardiste (Troupe théâtrale 7:84). Leur reprise de la chanson Only You de Yazoo (Alison Moyet) a été numéro un des charts britanniques à Noël 1983. (fr)

O grupo foi formado em 1982 por um grupo de actores, o "7:84 Theatre group", um grupo de teatro que tinha cantado a capella na sua produção de One Big Blow, baseado na greve de mineiros britânica de 1982. "Only You", o primeiro single, foi número um no Reino Unido no Natal de 1983, tendo ficado cinco semanas no top. Teve também bastante sucesso na Europa, chegando ao primeiro lugar do top na Alemanha a 20 de Fevereiro de 1984. O segundo single, "When You're Young And In Love" atingiu a sétima posição mas o terceiro, "Who's That Girl", mal entrou na tabela dos mais vendidos. O grupo tocou duas músicas no álbum Freudiana, de 1990. Apesar de terem estado pouco tempo (pt)
