Pat & Mick Use It Up Wear It Out - Top of the Pops April 1990
From Wikipedia:
Pat and Mick were a British vocal duo consisting of popular radio personalities Pat Sharp and Mick Brown. The royalties from their record sales were donated to Capital FM's 'Help A London Child' charity. All their singles were produced by Stock Aitken & Waterman.
The pair were often portrayed as unintelligent in media coverage, but this served to boost record sales, providing money for the charity in the process.
With their last single released in 1993, and Sharp no longer at Capital Radio, they have no immediate plans to collaborate on future charity singles.
As of February 2009, Brown is hosting the 'Drive Time' radio show on 107.8 Radio Jackie, while Sharp presents the same slot on Heart Cambridge.

About Mel & Kim Appleby
In 1987, the Stock/Aitken/Waterman ‘Hit Factory’ was cementing its domination of the pop scene. The most vibrant sister act their PWL studio worked with was... not The Reynolds’ Girls but the vivaciously fizzy Mel and Kim Appleby, whose debut FLM (Cherry Red) is enjoyably reissued. Londoners Mel And Kim took their cues from US rare groove and Italo disco, and unlike most PWL acts... [read the full article]Monday, October 25, 2010

Unchained melody - Robson & Jerome
One episode called for the duo to sing "Unchained Melody". Subsequently ITV was inundated by people looking to buy the song, and the pair were persuaded by Simon Cowell to release it as a single. Simon Cowell enlisted top music producers Mike Stock and Matt Aitken, with whom he had worked many times, to produce the single. It stayed at No.1 for 7 weeks in UK Chart, selling more than a million copies and making it the best-selling single of the year.
Subsequently they had two further #1 singles produced by Mike Stock and Matt Aitken and two #1 albums.

Mike Stock about Pop Songs
...Yet Rotem, whose repertoire stretches from the credible (Rihanna's SOS) to the criminal (Paris Hilton), has another life: playing in jazz quartets. He says his classical and jazz grounding help him find the precise chord progressions that "get inside people's heads" while sounding deceptively simple. It's a point Stock is keen to pursue. "Anyone who thinks Kylie Minogue's I Should Be So Lucky is easy should try to play it," he says of the SAW number. "It's in four keys, all of them really awkward, and you can't even strum it unless you're a really good musician.".As for lyrics, Stock believes they should be "studiedly simple, not simple". Rotem aims for the subjects that most appeal to pop consumers: "Love, excitement, nostalgia, sexuality. But the hook has to be familiar without being cliched." He mentions Umbrella, Rihanna's hit. "It's about love: 'You can stand under my umbrella.'"
Even the experts have flops, though. Rotem refuses to discuss his Cheetah Girls song (straight in at No 122), while Stock remembers a disastrous hook-up with the metal band Judas Priest on a (sadly unreleased) version of Diana Ross's You Are Everything. "It was like working with Spinal Tap", he sniggers. "You are everything – KERRANG!".
Still, the hit-makers do seem to have the last laugh. Stock spent "years defending" I Should Be So Lucky... [read the full article]
