MARTIKA - More Than You Know (1988)
MARTIKA - Martika's Kitchen (1991)
SHAKESPEAR'S SSITER - You're History (1989)





"More Than You Know" is the second single from Martika's debut album. "More Than You Know" reached the top twenty of the pop charts in the US (#18), UK (#15) and Australia.

"Martika's Kitchen" is the second single and title track released from Martika's 1991 album of the same name. The single was written and produced by Prince, but failed to be a success in America, peaking at number 93 on the US pop chart. The vibrant and colorful video helped the song be a bigger hit in the UK, where it reached number 17.

"You're History" is a song by the British-based pop act Shakespears Sister, released in 1989 as the second single from their debut album "Sacred Heart". The song was the first release to present the act as a duo, and their first chart hit, reaching #7 in the UK. The music video for "You're History" is the first to feature Detroit, and was also the act's third video to be directed by award-winning Sophie Muller, who previously directed the videos for "Break My Heart (You Really)" and "Heroine".The comical video begins with Detroit singing the opening verse of the song in front of a red stage curtain. At the end of the verse, the curtains open and the video continues in a glittering vaudeville style featuring Detroit and Fahey superimposed against various backdrops. A variety of dancers (including a group of ballerinas), a court jester juggling act, and various musicians also appear in the video, as does Fahey's two year old son, Sam, dressed in a bumblebee costume.
