Seriously how could you not adore it? the best of SAW right there.

Kims "Don't Worry" isn't far behind in terms of 80s awesomeness

Mel & Kim were one of the classiest acts S/A/W produced for and their singles Respectable and Showing Out were excellent pop hits.

I only found out about Mel's tragic death in my mid teens (I was 7 when she died) and despite finding out years later, it really shocked me.

Don't Worry is also a pop gem that I also loved at the time. Scary to think it'll be 25 years this coming October since Don't Worry was a UK #2 hit.

I know I can't believe she died so young had she not I think Mel & Kim would have gone on to be massive in the early 90s I expect Don't Worry was supposed to be their single but due to her death Kim had to record it solo.

Its sad that so little was released between the duo and Kim solo.

I really like this song. I only discovered it a few years ago when it came on a music channel.

Kim had another really good song called 'Free Spirit'. I really like 'That's The Way It Is' by Mel and Kim.

RIP Mel - Beautiful woman gone too soon

Fun Love and Money and That's The Way It Is were very good songs by Mel and Kim, sadly Mel was too ill to be in either of the videos
