They did have another minor MTV hit with Doctor Doctor.
What are you talking about? Thompson Twins are not a "one hit wonder" band. (I had to fact check you cause I felt like you were disseminating misinformation.) They had several chart entries in several countries. In the Name of Love, Lies, Hold Me Now, and In the Name of Love '88 all went to #1 on the US dance charts. Ironically one of their best songs, Love on You Side, only went to 6 on that chart.
