Sexy Eyes - Whigfield, 1996
Ooh ooh aah aah sexy eyes Na na na... Ooh ooh aah aah sexy eyes Sexy eyes, eyes Na na na... Ooh ooh aah aah sexy eyes Na na na... |
Sannie Charlotte Carlson is a Danish singer best known as Whigfield, and for her Euro-Dance music of the 1990s. Her 1994 hit, Saturday Night, gained popularity in the Mediterranean clubs as well as northern Europe, Spain and parts of South America. She debuted on the UK Singles Chart at #1. This made Whigfield the first ever non-UK artist to achieve such status. However, she has never been able to crack the US market in any significant way. I first heard Whigfield's music in a smoky, downtown club, and had to ask who the artist was. Off her first album, Sexy Eyes has been released numerous times in many different countries since 1996. The nature of Dance/House/Trance etc., seems to be endless re-mixes, edits and treatments of one song. Sexy Eyes, although not as popular as Saturday Night, reached its highest standing at #6 on Australia's ARIA charts. Whigfield has been accused of not even doing her own vocals, due to the practice of lip-syncing during live performances. Given the controversy surrounding the non-artists Milli-Vanilli in the 1980s, the suspicions are understandable. It has been proven that Ms. Carlson can, indeed sing, but some still suggest that the vocals on the albums may be those of Annerly Gordon (who actually wrote the song). |
