Question
Who remade the song "I Want to Kiss You All Over?" The original was Exile, but who remade it?

Thanks,
Tracy

Answer
Dear Tracy,

EXILE took KISS YOU ALL OVER to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1978. I know two cover versions of the song. The first was by former teen star TIFFANY who recorded it for her 1993 album NEW INSIDE. In 1996, pop and dance music trio NO MERCY, recorded it for their debut album MY PROMISE. It went to No. 1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play on January 31, 1998 while barely hitting the bottom of the Hot 100, peaking at No. 80 on November 22, 1997.

Maraming salamat po!!

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
