After introducing a British-born singer to the group (Shanie Campbell) they released "Dont Give Me Your Life" single, similar in style to their debut track. It reached # 2 in the CIN charts and topped the Club Record category at Music Weeks 1995 Awards. It was included in "Now Thats What I Call Music! 30 (U.K. series)", "Hit Machine 13" and other popular compilation albums all over the world.
The group released an album entitled simply "Alex Party" (not U Gotta Be or Wrap It Up as incorrectly credited on some websites). The album contained the hits "Wrap Me Up" and "Simple Things" but did not contain the first single "Read My Lips (Saturday Night Party)" - only a remix of it - Read My Lips (September Party).
U Gotta Be was a standalone single released back in 2000 and it was also the last Alex Party single.
Shanie Campbell issued a remake of "Dont Give Me Your Life" under her own name, "Shanie" on May 5th 2008, which was accompanied by a music video.
More recently, there have been promo cds distributed under the name Shanie - Youre Still The One, Read My Lips and Piano In The Dark but these tracks have not been released officially as singles. The tracks are taken from an album announced some time ago on Shanies myspace page, which she would be releasing.
The album was titled as Night Fever but so far we have had no news regarding any release date. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
