Rachel’s band, S Club 7, officially released their chart-breaking ‘Don’t Stop Movin‘” on Vinyl for the very first time last week. The vinyl release was the first official release since the band announced their 25th Anniversary reunion celebration in February.
As of today, the release has officially hit #1 on the UK Vinyl Singles Chart, reemerging as the contender for #1 nearly 22 years after it initially topped the United Kingdom singles chart in April of 2001.
“Don’t Stop Movin’” was originally released on 23 April 2001 as the lead single from S Club’s third album “Sunshine”. The track, penned by Simon Ellis, Sheppard Solomon, and S Club 7 themselves, shows a more mature side from their previous efforts. The track sold in excess of 801,000 copies in the UK alone and hit the #1 position on two separate occasions in the UK, it even won the ‘Best British Single’ award at the 2022 BRIT awards. “Don’t Stop Movin'” also peaked at the top spot in Switzerland, Scotland, and Ireland.
This is not S Club’s first appearance in the charts in the past few years. The band’s third album “Sunshine” was released on vinyl last year in limited copies exclusively through HMV. The vinyl release managed to peak at #22 on the UK Vinyl’s Album Chart. Prior to that, a compilation album “Essential S Club 7” was released and peaked at #35 on the UK albums chart and #5 on the Scottish album charts, despite no promotion.
Remember folks, don’t stop moving to the S Club beat!!
