Had completely forgotten about this song and artist! She always made me think of Bacardi Breezers
Another flop girl group from the early 00s - Fem@il. Flee Fly Flo got to number 46

Ooh maybe one of you will know! This has bugged me for literally years.
When I was really young in the 1990s I remember listening to a cassette (lol) of one of the Now That's What I Call Music series. There was a group who's name totally escapes me and I was obsessed with the track on the tape. I remember reading the sleeve note and it said one of the group had died in a car crash. I'm sure it was a group of 2 men and 2 women, and I *think* it was one of the girls who sadly passed. Does anyone know who this is?
To summarise, I don't know the year, the group name, the song name or the album name so if you solve this puzzle I will love you forever.

I've been googling and have no idea. The only ones coming up are London boys and viola beach.
Omg I think it is! I remember the sleeve note saying the song charted after she died, which is what the Wikipedia says as well. Thank you so much!!is it Shiva?

Supersister "I like my man like I like my coffee"
I unashamedly love that song, even bought the CD single!Supersister "I like my man like I like my coffee"
I liked this song at the time and remember being surprised when it flopped (I think it only made top 20 in UK, but was a huge hit in the US). Although I listened to it again recently and didn't like it any more. I think they were signed to a record deal by P Diddy.
I hadn't heard of London Boys before someone mentioned them in this thread, they were before my time. I read their story and oh what a tragedy.
I will say that I haven't read the whole thread, so these two might have been mentioned, and maybe flop is over stating it, in both cases, but Amy Studt and Sandi Thom¹ never really lived up to the hype:
Of course, the one from this kind of thing that did do well was Amy MacDonald, who it must be said is amazing.
¹I intentionally didn't go with I wish I was a Punk Rocker because I think Saturday Night is a better song.

Re Amy Studt, I liked "Just A Little Girl". I remember Misfit being a hit, but her career seemed to fizzle out
Ah I love this one!!!I was obsessed with this
Does anyone remember Rollergirl? She had a song called Superstar which was played a lot in clubs, I thought it would be huge but it didn’t even chart. Her only “hit” was a cover of Dear Jessie which got to 22 in the charts.
Oh this thread if just 
Anyone remember the summer bop 'Summertime girls' by LFO the lyrics were like 'new kids on the block had a bunch of hits, Chinese food makes me sick...she looks like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch'
They were another Lou Pearlman boy band in the late 90s. Sad that 2 of 3 of them have now passed.

Oooh I loved Amy Studt’s songs. I remember seeing her advertised to perform at the local student union a few years later. I wonder if it’s strange for musicians to go from small time stuff then seeing their face EVERYWHERE for a few weeks and then back to doing small time stuff again. Do they spend the rest of forever chasing the high? Or get a normal job?
So that's where Eminem got those lines in the song Marshall Mathers from.
(very NSFW)
Spoilered, because, well, it's Marshall Mathers LP era Eminem:
New Kids on the Block / sucked a lot of dick / Boy and girl groups make me sick / And I can't wait 'til I catch all you faggots in public / I'ma love it
