Pat and Mick

from Wikipedia we can read something about them: 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.

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 Pat Sharp no longer at Capital Radio, they have no immediate plans to collaborate on future charity singles.

Minogue performs in Istanbul

ISTANBUL – Turkish Daily News: A long-awaited performance by world-renowned petite star Kylie Minogue will take place in Istanbul this evening. Minogue, who was chosen as the Best International Female Artist at this year's Brit Awards, will take the stage in Turkey for the first time.
...
Minogue rose to prominence during the late 1980s through her role in the Australian television soap opera "Neighbours," before commencing a career as a pop artist in 1987. After signing a contract with the British songwriters and producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman in 1988, she achieved a string of international hit records.





The Queen and Her Crayons: An Interview With Donna Summer

Donna Summer doesn’t like boxes: “I’ve been out of the box my whole entire career and I’m staying out of the box,” she declares. It’s a fortnight before the release of Crayons, an auspicious occasion considering Summer’s last studio album was released 17 years ago. “People didn’t know what to do with me when I first came out. There was no category for dance.” There is no category for Crayons either: shades of rock, reggae, samba, pop, and dance color twelve new songs that were written ... Summer changed course in the 1980s, working with a variety of producers that included Quincy Jones, Michael Omartian, and Stock/Aitken/Waterman...

It wasn't a Stock, Aitken, Waterman production but I liked it. It hasn't the S.A.W. studio recording technology they used at the time, but the video is very cool!

Johnna & Mike Flowers Pops

I bought this song at the record shop in 1996 because I see the label PWL, but I saw it wasn't a S.A.W. production and I never liked this song, it's usual dance, far away from Boy Krazy "That's What Love Can Do" or other Stock, Aitken, Waterman productions.



Mike Stock at the time was working with Matt Aitken with their Love This label, they produced this song and it didn't reach high chart positions on Uk but I like it very much because it was the S.A.W. style production!

I remember about this song, I was on a beach in Rimi, I was reading the first SMASH HITS issue I bought and where was an article about Sonia. I bought her Album, "Everybody Knows", produced by Stock, Aitken, Waterman in Milan (Virgin Megastore in Piazza Duomo) the spring before, I went there with my classmates. I liked very much this song.

(Ain't Nobody Loves You) Like I Do

we can read from Wikipedia:

"(Ain't Nobody Loves You) Like I Do" is a single by American singer La Toya Jackson. The song is taken from her fifth album, La Toya. It is one of only four songs by Jackson to have an accompanying music video.

The single was released in 1987 throughout Europe, excluding the United Kingdom. Despite being produced by the European trio Stock Aitken Waterman, who were big hit-producers at the time, the single failed to chart. The B-side of the single, "(Tell Me) She Means Nothing To You At All", was released as its own single in France. The 12" singles include a longer version of the song.

However, the single did fairly well on the German DJ Charts. It debuted at No. 17 and stayed on the charts for several months. She also performed the song live on German prime time television "Die Verflixte Sieben" (with Rudi Carrell). The music video for the single was given little airplay and was never released on video or DVD. It didn't surface on the internet until March of 2007.

Rick Astley reveals: I still get a tingle from singing

His face used to adorn many a teenage girl’s bedroom, but these days – as Emma Pinch discovers – Rick Astley prefers to live life anonymously

IT’S a sunny day and a 42-year-old bloke is taking a leisurely stroll down a south west London high street, toying with the idea of popping into Waterstones.

He doesn’t attract a single backward glance.

And that’s surprising because, not too long ago, Rick Astley’s smiley face, with its shock of stiff auburn hair, was splashed almost weekly across the centrefold of Smash Hits, as instantly recognisable as bubble-permed Stock Aitken and Waterman stablemate Kylie Minogue...
