I know Kiki Dee was a backing singer with Elton John before he went Breaking Her heart. Eddie Reader used to sing B/V's with Annie Lennox and Marie Wilson was a backing singer.

Did Helen Terry go on to much in the UK after doing such a standout job on Culture Club's 'Church of The Poison Mind'? I never heard much about her again.

She also had a non-hit single, "Now You're Mine" or maybe "Now That You're Mine", from the Electric Dreams soundtrack. No idea what she's been doing since. Amazing voice.

I had a quick listen to Love Lies Lost on YouTube and it was a lot worse than I remember it. Still, she was great with Culture Club.
