It was... a hit, and it sold many copies. It just didn't make the No1 spot because there was a lot of competition around at that time. Believe me, if this song had been released ten years later, it would have held the No1 spot for ages.

Extraordinary to think that she had already been around for 8 or 9 years before she had her first big hit. Kiki always said that she was so proud to have performed on Top of the Pops and that her mum and dad were still with her to see her achieve success. Incidentally Paul McCartney also appeared in this episode. She sings this flawlessly. Beautiful singer and beautiful song.

Check out the album she did for Motown. Kiki's voice was so captivating, the son of someone at Motown who had heard her in the UK told them about her. Motown was high on her and brought her to Detroit for a few weeks to record nearly enough for two albums. Kiki sad she enjoyed her time there. Was listening to that album today and it brought me here to find her other songs. This one. Wow. I started listening to this about 9 hours ago and I keep having to play it over and over. What an amazing, beautiful, voice. Kiki is a beautiful person.
