Even before the iconic TLC and Destiny’s Child have made us love girl trios like madmen, there is one group that’s undeniably one of the most memorable acts of all time.
Besting songs that are played during your lazy Sunday mornings, the general music populace has been magnetized into loving their soulful and heartfelt ballads.
You might have overlooked at giving praise to this girl trio due to the hastened changes in taste within the music industry, but it will never be too late to adore them as their smash tracks are still being played onto the radio almost every day.
They have been frequent names on huge chart-topping lists, their albums sold worldwide with unfathomable sales and the respect that has been established under their wing is more than just for what they have contributed. Wilson Phillips actually isn’t a solo act, thus, this mighty girl group is really something that’s worth your attention.
Spawned from The Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson, John and Michelle Phillips of The Mamas and The Papas, Wilson Phillips is actually their last names combined and have worked wondrously into the girl group’s branding.
Formed during the last years of 1980s, Wilson Phillips is comprised of Wendy Wilson, Chynna Phillips and Carnie Wilson and have been a famous household name until the 90s music era.
The group has been known to make the pop rock genre afloat and the smart way of creating songs that focused on mature heartbreak and feelings have been an innate gift.
During the entire span of the group’s career, Wilson Phillips have released five studio albums— Wilson Phillips (1990), Shadows and Light (1992), California (2004), Christmas in Harmony (2012) and Dedicated (April 2012). All of the aforementioned albums have easily careened to worldwide success and even reached quintuple platinum status in the United States and Canada.
Some of the songs that have reached palpable success on the charts are the songs Hold On, Impulsive, Release Me, You Won’t See Me Cry (all peaked at Number 1 on various country charts) while The Dream Is Still Alive, Daniel, Give It Up, Flesh and Blood, Go Your Own Way, Already Gone, Get Together and Good Vibrations have reached respective slots of their own.
It can be said that the girl group have been best remembered via their bittersweet track entitled You’re In Love which is an exposition of a love that cannot be continued due to the other party being happy with another person already. The rawness of the lyrics and the emotions that have been put into making this track the soundtrack of so many forlorn and broken souls.
Wilson Phillips might not be heard right now releasing new tracks, but the legacy they have left is indelible to everyone’s hearts. The trio has been nominated by humongous award giving bodies such as the Grammy Awards (Song of the Year for Hold On, Album of the Year, Best New Artist, Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group), American Music Awards (Favorite Single – Pop / Rock, Favorite New Artist) and Billboard Music Awards by where the group won the Hot 100 Single of the Year for their carrier song Hold On. As of the current count, Wilson Phillips’ albums have a net worth of 10 million copies sold worldwide, making them one of the best-selling girl groups of their generation.
