ETERNAL : Stay

The ’90s were a great time for the pop / R&B hybrid. En Vogue, Salt N Pepa and in 1993 came Eternal. Four English lasses with a cracking debut in ‘Stay’. Peaking at No.4 in the UK No.3 in Australia in 1994 (even reaching No.19 in the US months later), ‘Stay’ is a power ballad wrapped up in a slow jam funk. The video…did someone say oversized jeans and flannel jackets? Eternal went on to have further hits with ‘Power Of A Woman’, ‘Don’t You Love Me’ and ‘I Am Blessed’ but nothing came as close to this sharp and instant first single.

– Paul from Wentworth Point in New South Wales
