S Club 7 had enjoyed consistent success since their debut, but ‘Never Had A Dream Come True’ is a pivotal moment that commenced the group’s imperial phase.
S Club 7 – Two In A Million
S Club 7 put themselves in contention for the Christmas #1 with ‘Two In A Million’, which was accompanied – of course – by a TV special.
S Club – Say Goodbye

S Club 7 – Natural
‘Natural’ marks an oft-overlooked transition towards adulthood for S Club 7, using an iconic classical sample as only they could.
