CD SHOWCASE MEMORIES

SPOTLIGHT = Chely Wright (1 song) & Michelle Wright (1 song)

A Kansas City MO native & a Canadian singer….


#1
Chely Wright is a Kansas City MO-native singer-songwriter-guitarist. Perhaps an underrated artist, she is a ‘1-hit Wonder’, thanks to this tune. This song debuted 03/13/1999, spent 31 weeks on the country charts & claimed #1; thanks to use in the last week of TV’s “Another World”, this single crossed over & reached #36 on the Billboard Hot 100. Only 2 other of her 17 releases mid 1994 to late 2004 cracked the Top 15: 1997’s “Shut Up & Drive” (#14) & 1999-2000’s “It Was” (#11).


#2
Michelle Wright is a singer from Morpeth, Ontario, Canada; she has 6 #1 tunes in Canada, including this song. This single debuted 04/04/1992, spent 20 weeks on the United States country charts & peaked at #10, her only Top 30 in the US. Other tunes that should’ve faired better in the US include 1992’s “1 Time Around” & 1992’s “He Would Be 16”.
