We know about groups that have had multiple personnel changes, many still singing with no original members.

There are exceptions I guess, one of which I am aware are;

"Ruby and the Romantics" 1961-1971.

Same five members from start to finish.

Hard to fit them into any category.

Best known for "Our Day Will Come."


My favourites are their;

"Hey There Lonely Boy"

"When You're Young and in Love."


Here's Ruby singing "Our Day Will Come" in 2009, to a great reception.

Of the "Romantics," three died of cancer and the fourth was shot and killed

U2 has the same members since they first started out and there isn't much gossip about personal relationships in the band.

It's unusual as U2 has been through ups and downs in popularity which often means at least one member peels off. Evidently they are great friends which must be a key factor in holding them together.

Not sure U2 are a "singing group", rather than a rock group with a singer.

Likewise Radiohead have the same lineup as they did at school in the 80's

Muse have had the same lineup since 1994.
