Anyone who watched The Chart Show might know this...

Does anyone remember a song which was a cover - I think - of Janet Kay's Silly Games? It was done in about the 90's and the video was done at night with a lot of children who were of mixed race and a girl was singing and there was a lot of people around. Alot of the guys in the video had dreadlocs and one was dj -ing in the corner. I think they were from Liverpool.

Was it Lindy Layton, who also sang on Beats International's 'Dub Be Good to Me'?

Hi ffletch, thanks for that but no it's not that one. The song wasn't very popular and wasn't really in the charts I don't think anyway. I remember the song was played on The Chart Show so it's quite a while back but I've been searching EVERYWHERE and can't find anything. I'm sure it was a Janet Kay cover though...do you have anymore ideas..?

And also it wasn't Lindy Layton singing on it - they were unknowns...I'm racking my brains now but I think the singer was wearing a red jacket...

And if I remember rightly the video was shot in a playground with the singer up on a stage...i think...

Hi there, It sounds like Soul II Soul with Get a life. especialy when you mentioned the guys with dreads and mixed race kids. Hope this helps. : )

Hi Potter, thanks for that but no, it's not Soul II Soul, -the singer was caucasion (sic) - but I can def c why u thought it might be, the vids r really similar now I think abt it!! No, this song was a definite cover and the group were not as popular as Beats Intl or Soul, not really sure the track even charted... I have a feeling I'll never find out - unless there happens to be any1 who worked on the Chart Show or was in that group reads this!! The video tape that I had of the song was recorded over long ago so I guess that's it...Thanks again! (",)
