When in Rome

The 1988 single "The Promise" is When in Rome's biggest commercial success and sole claim to fame. The three-piece group released just one self-titled album and faded into obscurity. When in Rome's Clive Farrington, Andrew Mann, and Michael Floreale reportedly started out in an earlier Manchester band, Leisure, who featured Corinne Drewery, who would go on to front another one-hit wonder group, Swing out Sister. ~ Erik Hage, All Music Guide
