londonbeat

Londonbeat's career started in the Netherlands where "There's a Beat Going On" reached the Top 10, and then "9 A.M (The Comfort Zone)" which subsequently became a modest success in the United Kingdom. They are best known for their song "I've Been Thinking About You", which hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts in 1991, and for their close harmonies.Band members include Americans Jimmy Helms (who also had a successful solo career and sang radio jingles) and George Chandler; with Jimmy Chambers (born 20 January 1946), Trinidad and multi-instrumentalist William Henshall (credited as Willy M). Their follow-up single "A Better Love" became a Billboard Hot 100 Top 20 hit, and they returned to on the dance chart with "Come Back" In 1995, Londonbeat entered the UK heats of the Eurovision Song Contest with "I'm Just Your Puppet on a ... (String)", however they were not selected to go to the main contest (losing out to rap group Love City Groove) and the single limped in at Number 55.In 2003, Londonbeat re-grouped with a new line up and signed to German record label Coconut. An album called Back in the Hi-Life featured re-recordings of "A Better Love" and "I've Been Thinkin' About You" amongst the new tracks.Marc Goldschmitz left the band in 2004, for his German indie-pop project, die Unerklarlichen.
