Vanessa Brown – WhippedWhen I saw this for the first time this morning I presumed that she was a new American artist, yet the lack of results brought up by Google suggests otherwise.

She released some great singles in the late 90s such as Killing Time and Angel and most famously worked with… Continue reading I Wanna Dance The Night Away
