Ep 33: Who's Leaving Who to Let's All Chant

There was no stopping SAW at this point in 1988 with another three massive hits on the UK chart, including Hazell Dean's long-awaited return to the top 10 with a cover of Anne Murray's "Who's Leaving Who". We hear from Hazell about the track and why it connected with the public when her previous few singles hadn't. Meanwhile, a change in line-up did not slow Bananarama down with a fourth hit being lifted from the Wow! album. The first single released by the girl group with Jacquie O'Sullivan in the line-up, "I Want You Back" was freshened up from the album and came with a music video that would never be made in 2022. We discuss that and how Jacquie ended up joining the group. This episode's third single was the debut collaboration between SAW and London DJs Pat Sharp and Mick Brown. Their charity cover of "Let's All Chant" was part of a long-running association betwee the pair and PWL — and Mick explains how it all came together.Support the showSubscribe for bonus material at chartbeats.com.au/sawInstagram: @chartbeatsauThreads: @chartbeatsau, @matthew_denby360Bluesky: @chartbeatsau, @matthewdenby.bsky.socialFacebook: Chart Beats: A Journey Through PopEmail: [email protected]
