When I was living in England in 1986, this was a huge hit, not only that but also a huge "school dance" hit. you see, when I would go to the school dances. The British DJs rock because they played all of the hot UK pop dance tune and this was one of them. Just about every single school dance that attended played this song and the dance floor would be packed!
The record itself is very explanitory. I am extremly surprised that it did not take off here in the US not even in the clubs. Of course her follow-ups, which aren't as good did such as "Feels Like The First Time" (a little more Urban leaning), "Toy Boy" , "Cross My Heart", & that remake "Right Back To Where We Started From".
I just learned a few minutes ago that she is the daughter of dance singer Miquel Brown. You after reading that topic about "So Many Men" incidently, it made me think of this song in the same genre/style. Wow. :o #2 UK 1986

Wasn't Benny Hill in the music video for "So Macho"? I have never seen the video even once when I lived over in the UK for the past three years. I saw it today for the first time. It's kinda disappointing because it really did not go so much with the content of the song. I was expecting this to be like an Oliva Newton John video, really. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0eVeHVJ7wA
