"She Kissed Me" by Terence Trent D'Arby

Versatile singer/songwriter Terence Trent D'Arby hit the top of the chart in 1988 with "Wishing Well", off his debut album "Introducing The Hardline According To Terence Trent D'Arby". The follow-up single, "Sign Your Name", was another hit landing at #4 and helped push the album to #4 as well.

His second album, "Neither Fish Nor Flesh", was a commercial flop, yielding no hit singles and peaking at #61 on the album chart. This sophomore jinx and the changing musical scene of the 90s probably had a lot to do with the fall of this promising star.

His third album, 1993's "Symphony Or Damn", was another eclectic mix of styles that earned a position at #119. One single from that record, the sultry ballad "Delicate", put D'Arby back on the charts for the first time since 1988, but only reaching #74. "She Kissed Me" was the rocking first single and I am amazed it didn't perform better and give D'Arby the comeback he truly deserved.
