Brotherhood
of Man
The
Brotherhood of Man first became known internationally in the early
seventies with hits such as United We Stand and Where
Are You Going To My Love.
The line-up of Nicky Stevens,
Sandra Stevens, Martin Lee and Lee Sheriden followed on with the continental
success of Lady and the million-seller Kiss Me Kiss You
Baby.
In 1976 they won the Eurovision
Song Contest with the much-loved song Save Your Kisses For Me.
The song proved to be one of the biggest-selling records of all time,
selling in excess of five million copies. It was number one in 33
different countries, including the UK, where it held the top spot
for six weeks. The group followed on with two more British number
one’s in the shape of Angelo and Figaro. They also
had a string of other hits including My Sweet Rosalie, Oh
Boy, Middle Of The Night and Beautiful Lover.
Altogether, there were
five hit albums, earning each member of the group a total of 26 platinum,
gold and silver discs. The three number one’s, as well as most
of the other hits, were co-written by group members Lee Sheriden and
Martin Lee along with Tony Hiller.
As writers they have each
won three Ivor Novello awards. The group was honoured to appear at
the Royal Command Performance in 1977 for the Queen’s Silver
Jubilee and the group has also topped the bill in almost every theatre
and concert hall in the UK, including The London Palladium and The
Royal Albert Hall.
Their phenomenal international
success, together with their own very special brand of entertainment,
has taken them all around the world performing on television, in concerts
and in cabaret. They are proud to boast today the exact same line-up
of four faces known to millions of TV viewers and pop fans all over
the world.
