小简介
意大利舞曲天后 - Whigfield 薇格菲尔,真名 Sannie Charlotte Carlson ,现年32岁,出生于丹麦,在意大利发展她的音乐事业,现在生活在西班牙。“Whigfield”这个名字是她为了向她的钢琴老师Whigfield先生致敬而取的。
by Steve HueyEuro-dance star Whigfield was born Sannie Charlotte Carlson in Skaelskør, Denmark, and spent some time in Africa as a child. Finding her initial career of modeling horribly dull, she returned to her first love of music, and began performing with her brothers band. Seeking more opportunities, she left Denmark and met Spagna producer Larry Pignagnoli, with whom she began recording under the name Whigfield (a tribute to her piano teacher of the same name). Her debut single, Saturday Night, hit number one in Spain for 11 weeks in 1994, and soon became a smash all across Europe (as well as Canada), selling over two million copies worldwide; she also became the first female artist to enter the British charts at number one with her debut single, thanks to a buzz over the song from U.K. clubgoers whod vacationed in Spain. The follow-ups Another Day and Think of You also became hits, though not quite as huge. All three were featured on her self-titled debut album, released in Europe in 1995 and America the following year (where it failed to cause nearly as much of a stir). Nevertheless, a fourth single contained on the album, Sexy Eyes, became another worldwide smash, topping the charts in Australia in 1996. After the remix album Mega Mixes, Whigfield issued her second album, appropriately titled Whigfield II, in late 1997; another stream of international hits followed, including Gimme Gimme, Baby Boy, No Tears to Cry, and Givin All My Love to You. Whigfield III followed in late 2000, producing hits in a cover of the Ronettes Be My Baby, the Spanish smash Doo Whop, and Much More.
