SOTD...



"The Sign" by Ace of Base was released in October 1993. The single served as the intro for the "US Version" of their debut album Happy Nation.

It became a big international hit, reaching number two in the United Kingdom and the top spot in Australia, Germany, Canada, Italy and New Zealand. In the US the song spent six weeks as number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was the No. 1 song of 1994, according to Billboard magazine's year-end charts.

I have always had a soft spot for Ace Of Base and this song remains one of my favorites. I just can't believe it's been 20 years since I was obsessed with it!

I guess I should have labelled this as NSFW then ;) But seriously, I can't believe it's been 20 years either...

I know, it only seems like 10 not 20 it must mean we are getting o-l-d oh I can't even say it :(

Don't worry darling, it was a typo in my post - it's obviously supposed to be 2 years, not 20! So we are still the gorgeous young schoolgirls we've always been :)

Jon said...

Ah, yes - gorgeous! Jx

I don't know WHERE you got that lovely little snapshots of us girls. I believe it was taken at the local malt shop. BTW, I'm the blond one ;)

So Thunderbitch has a moustache now? Jx

Barbarella's Galaxy said...

Well, no - but I most certainly do not! Besides, I'm a total blond, wouldn't you agree?

Thunderbitch said...

Well I only had that moustache for that photo shoot we did, we didn't like it and stripped me of all hair right away ;)

Ah yes - the very painful trip to the spa (with full wax treatment). How could I forget - the screams still keep me awake at night ;)
