Who girlband had the most Top 10 hits in the 1990’s? Spice Girls? All Saints? TLC? Nope. It was in fact Eternal, the band who went through more changes and facelifts than Joan Rivers... Originally starting out in 1993 and marketed a soul/pop crossover act, the teenage quartet consisted of the Bennett sisters, Easther and Vernie, and Italia Conti stage-school friends Kelle Bryan and Louise Nurding. After spawning 6 Top 20 hits from their debut album ‘Always and Forever’, they were rocked in 1995 by the departure of Nurding. There were rumours of possible racial issues coming to the fore, after she complained that her face was ...  Read the complete review

Listening to Eternal takes me back to the days when soulful pop was all the rage. I was delighted when they brought out a greatest hits collection; this album showcases their finest moments. Who are they: Sisters Easther and Vernie, Kelle and Louise. Louise left the group in 1995 to go solo. They were at their peak in the late nineties. On this album: 'Angel Of Mine' is an odd one to start the album, a slow drippy ballad. It is not their strongest song, but is sung well and will make you feel rather slushy.

Every track on this album is sensational. Seventeen tracks that blow you away and are the perfect remedy for a stressful day at work. It includes their only or at least their first number one single "I Wanna Be The Only One" recorded in duet with BeBe Williams. All of the songs on this album have been in the top fifteen. Nine of the seventeen tracks featured on the album have been in the top five. "Stay" reached number 4 in '93, "Always and Forever" reached number 2 at the end of '93, "Oh Baby I..." reached number 4 in mid '94, "Power Of A Woman" reached 5 in mid '95, "Someday" from the ...  Read the complete review

Eternal were a girl group in the 1990's made up four women. But that reduced to three whenever Louise Nurding (Now Redknapp) left the group. The band had 5 albums including this greatest hits record and were pretty famous for a few years back then. This is an excellent collection of the best songs Eternal had to offer. No doubt the biggest hit of the album is "I Wanna be the Only One" , this was huge and had constant airtime at the time. This was released in the summer of 1997 and is the song that made Eternal the short phenomonam that they were. Of course they had many other songs from this album that are all fantastic and made it to ...  Read the complete review
