Subject: Song remake

Written By: Lisa on 1/13/2001 at 3:40 p.m.

In the late 80s (possibly early 90s--I'm not really sure) a "girl band" redid the Jackson Five's "I Want You Back." Does anyone know who this group was and / or where I might find that song on cassette or CD? Thanks!

andyeagle is right - that cover of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" was by the Canadian group West End Girls. It was only a minor hit here in the U.S. in the Summer of '91, though. The song was off the group's 1991 s/t debut album. Unfortunately, the album is long out-of-print in all formats, although it was issued on CD here in the U.S...
