Des'ree was very popular in the UK in the 90s with six top 20 hits on the UK charts. "Life" (1998) was her biggest hit during this time, reaching number eight as well as being a number one in Italy and Netherlands.

Answer: Godley & Creme

Kevin Godley and Lol Creme left the band 10cc in 1977, to form an eponymous duo. As a two piece, they weren't as successful as 10cc, but "Cry" (1985) was a hit in most countries in which it was released, reaching the top 20 in UK, Germany, Netherlands, Austria and on the Billboard Hot 100 in USA.


The lyric from "Losing My Religion" is "Try, cry" towards the end of the song.

"Oh No" (1981) was the last Commodores hit which featured Lionel Richie as a member, before he left the band to go solo. Although the track stalled at number 44 in UK charts, it reached number four in the Billboard Hot 100 in USA and went a spot higher in Canada, where it peaked at number three.

Answer: The Rubettes

What were the UK record buying public thinking when they propelled The Rubettes to top ten stardom? Between 1974 and 1975, the band had five consecutive UK top 20 hits, starting with the number one single "Sugar Baby Love" (1974) and ending with Foe-Dee-Oh-Dee" (1975). Fourth in the list of five, was "I Can Do It" (1975) which reached number seven on UK charts.


The lyric from "Losing My Religion" is "And I don't know if I can do it".

Answer: The Sheepdogs

Saskatchewan rock band The Sheepdogs, became in 2011, the first unsigned band ever to feature on the cover of "Rolling Stone" magazine.
"I Don't Know" was released from their debut EP, "Five Easy Pieces" (2011) and reached the top 50 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart.

On a personal note, this track will always be a favourite of mine as the young daughter of a friend was convinced that the band, instead of "I Don't Know", were singing "Hot Dog Bones". Makes you wonder what the heck her parents were feeding her, but I promise, once you've heard it, you can't unhear it.

As with the previous answer, the lyric from "Losing My Religion" is the line, "And I don't know if I can do it".

Although they were only originally around for just six years between 1994 and 2000, I think most people in the world know of The Spice Girls, so great was their success.
This track from 1997, was their sixth consecutive UK number one and spent two weeks on the top over Christmas, before being knocked off by the charity recording of Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" (1998).
Everybody "zigazig ah."
