Cathy Dennis
Cathy Dennis (born March 25, 1969 in Norwich, England) is a singer, songwriter and record producer.Dennis achieved her first success as a vocalist with the dance group D Mob when their single C'mon And Get My Love reached the top 10 in the United States in 1989.
She scored three solo top 10 hits in the United States in the early nineties with Just Another Dream, Touch Me (All Night Long) and Too Many Walls, but her subsequent releases failed to achieve this level of success.
Her greatest success has come as a songwriter with five of her compositions reaching number one in Britain. Never Had A Dream Come True and Have You Ever (both recorded by S Club 7), Anything Is Possible (recorded by Will Young), and Toxic (recorded by Britney Spears) all reached number one . Her highest selling composition Can't Get You Out Of My Head, (recorded by Kylie Minogue) spent four weeks at number one in Britain, and sold over 3 million copies worldwide to become the world's second highest selling single in 2001, and this song also won Dennis an Ivor Novello Award for the year's most performed composition. She also won this award two years later for Anything Is Possible.
She co-wrote the American Idol theme for the television series, and in Britain and the United States contestants Will Young, Gareth Gates, Kelly Clarkson and Clay Aiken recorded her songs. Other artists who have recorded her songs include Dannii Minogue, Delta Goodrem, Celine Dion, Spice Girls, Emma Bunton, Ronan Keating, Rachel Stevens and Hear'Say.
