[@matthewprince9705]

@@karenaldred3645 1) do you think the Americans wanted some upstart group from the UK scoring hits in their charts and outselling them? 2) their dad managed them and upset a lot of UK execs with his business practices. They were rich, but overworked and overexposed and the music scene was moving to tougher gangster rap, house and grunge. So they went to America instead and signed with Sony Music who gave them zero marketing and the dad didn't let lead singer Denise go solo. After two good albums that flopped with Sony, they went independent with two more albums and quit in 2001. There you go!

Oh yes, and the way in which many truths were told through music but most have no idea. Great songs. All those thinking about tapping in to brains today (just as they've done for many many years already) SHOULD REALLY LISTEN TO THE LYRICS AND GET A GRIP ON THEIR SELFISH ATTEMPTS TO CONTROL INNOCENT AND UNSUSPECTING PEOPLE. As a previous victim of attempted mind hacking/control by GVEdirect I can say it's no way to behave! And if you were looking for absolute evil, there's a very strong possibility GVEdirect would know exactly where it resides, as they seem to conjur it up, on demand and create absolute evil chaos! With the help of unlimited funds, access to all spying/intelligence capabilities and severe targeted bullying antics of good and innocent people. God bless all good, honest and decent people 🙏 👍 😊 I should also point out that if I die in any way, it will be murder! I'm threatened with being killed on a regular underhand basis most days, so, I'd like to set the record straight and give you the truth here!
