She passed the audition with flying colours and began doing session work. She also decided that great food and sunshine were a good reason to stay in Italy. After a while, seeing that she enjoyed singing and everybody said she had an amazing voice, she decided to start a solo career.
She went to Larry Pignagnoli, a famous producer of dance music with a long list of international hits to his name, and did a studio test on a track that Larry was working on with a young, highly talented arranger called Marco Soncini.
The result is 2 Times, one of the most extraordinarily unforgettable debut songs to come out of the international dance scene in a long while.
2 Times went to no.1 in Denmark, no.2 in United Kingdom and Belgium, Top 10 in in France, Germany, Austria, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Netherlands, Norway and East Europe, collecting many Gold and Platinum discs.
The second single, Voices, reached top 1O positions in [palce]Spain, Denmark and the Czech Republic. It was released in United Kingdom in February 2000 and went straight into the Top 30.
The third single, an irresistible cover version of Ring My Bell came out in Europe, while 2 Times began exploding in Canada.
Ann Lee's debut album, Dreams, is currently on release and selling well all over the globe!
The fourth single, taken from the Dreams album, So Deep, gave free rein to her inimitable vocal prowess.
Now Ann Lee is back with an irresistibly catchy dance anthem No No No, just released all over the world.
Smooth & Sweet

If you tell me what you want
I'll do what you want me to
If it's really really what you want
With just a word you reach to me
I will do all that I can
So much that you can teach me baby
Smooth and sweet - feel your touch
Can you make this a reality
Smooth and sweet - I want so much
For you to become a part of me
I can move my world right now
If you tell me what you need
Even turn it up-side down
If it's really really what you need
Hold out your arms and reach for me
I will do all that I can
Now that you know I need you baby
Won't you say you're be my man
