| Corinne Drewery |
After almost a dozen years since
their last concert (April 7, 2008) in the Philippines, the English
pop duo
Swing
Out Sister (SOS), composed of Corinne
Drewery (vocals) and Andy
Connell (keyboards), is heading back to the Philippines for their 2020
Philippine Tour with special guest Sybil. Their three-leg concert dates are
April 16 at the Smart Araneta
Coliseum, April 17 at the SMX
Convention Center, Davao, and April 19 at the Waterfront Hotel, Cebu.
The much loved 1980s duo
began to dominate the music industry with their sophisticated dance-pop-jazz
genre in the autumn of 1986, following the release of the 1986 effervescent song
Breakout, their biggest hit to date. The irresistible upbeat
single lived up to its name as it became an international chart sensation, not
only in the United Kingdom and the US, but in many markets worldwide including
the Philippines.
The group was nominated for
two Grammy Awards in 1988: Best New Artist and Best
Pop Vocal Performance by a Group or Duo ("Breakout").
Swing Out Sister became part
of the defining sound of British pop in the late 1980s and one of the most
successful pop bands around the globe with their multiple hit songs such as Where
in the World, Fooled By a Smile, You On My Mind, the more serious and jazzy Twilight
World, Waiting Game, Forever Blue, Am I the Same Girl? (a remake of the Eugene
Record soul composition), the brooding Surrender, The Windmills Of Your
Mind, La-La
(Means I Love You), Love Won’t Let You Down, Now You're
Not Here, Precious Words, Not Gonna Change, Get in Touch with Yourself, Better
Make It Better, Wake Me Up When It’s Over and Who’s Been Sleeping.
Other cuts include Something
Every Day, Time Tracks You Down, Butterfly, My State of Mind, I’d Be Happy, Butterfly
Lullaby, Secret Love (You’re Invisible), All I Say All I Do, Out There, Beautiful
Mess and Little Wizard Mixes of Butterfly and Something Every Day.
