anyone else a fan of ace dutch (?) cover-rapping duo clock? when asked why they chose their name they answered something like "we just looked round the room and saw a clock"....classic randomness.

Did they only release covers? They were indeed the Asda Smartprice 2 Unlimited. I remember the bloke quit leaving the woman on her own to release such travesties as 'Carwash'.

I liked It's Over, although I am aware that it was actually rubbish.

Aaaah, you've taken me back to Smash Hits Show on the Road (poor man's Poll Winner's Party - I lived too far away).

if the Smash Hits Show on the Road is poor man's Poll Winner's Party, I dread to think what the Mizz roadshow is - glasgow, 1995 - clock, ant and dec, some Mizz Models, and a boy band called atlanta, who one of the members is in a Yahoo group I'm in, Jessica Garlicks I think.

We saw Clock when they supported Ant & Dec. We were on the 2nd row and I can tell you that bloke had very scary eyebrows! They fetched a little girl up on stage and the poor thing was absolutely terrified!

I was once involved in a dance troupe that used Clock as their music. Even know they make my feet ache.

About two years after the original Clock disappeared, they 'reformed' - only without Ray and Anita, and with two other women instead.
I remember the 'new Clock' appearing on London Tonight, miming to their single (which sounded like Rosalla, or that 'Freed From Desire' tune, or something) and then promptly dropping off the face of the earth.
I bet popjustice himself knows what happened to them.

There is nothing mighty about CLock.
Nothing whatsoever!
Second rate 2Unlimited.
now Ray and Anita were a different kettle of fish altogether.
I loved Faces!
