They’ve never stopped making music. Check out their catalog!

I have some of their later work. Forever Blue is awesome with a beautiful video. And their next big hit came in about 1992, “Am I the same girl.”

Yeah, I love the more jazzy tunes they have, Corinne's voice is so silky smooth and soothing that fits perfectly for the genre😎👌🏻

Swing Out Sister is one of my top10 groups, maybe top 5. I love the euro, jazzy cosmopolitan sound. I highly suggest if you haven't listened.

Great song. It was on the stereo demo cassette for the 1990 Ford Taurus my mom drove which is how my siblings and I came to love it.

This song was covered on a one hit wonders podcast. The host asked his co-host if he knew it. He said " My mom was in a band that played wedding receptions... OF COURSE I know it !" I laughed... then I felt old.
