In 1989, Wright was replaced by Margo Urban and more hits followed. Their sophomore album "We Can't Go Wrong" includes the lead single "My Heart Skips a Beat" climbed to #38 on the Billboard Hot 100. The ballad title track "We Can't Go Wrong" became their first Top 10 hit, peaking at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100.
By 1992 the trio had more lineup chages: Jackson was the only remaining original member. New members were Evelyn Escalera and Michelle Valentine. Preceeding the released of The Cover Girls third album, "Here It Is", they scored their second Top 10 hit followed ("Wishing On A Star" #9 Pop & #7 Dance) and "Thank You" (#75 Pop). The albums' other singles are "Don't Stop Now" (#63 Pop & #8 Dance) and by "Funk Boutique" (#55 Pop & #8 Dance) and "If You Want My Love (Here It Is)" (#8 Dance). "Don't Stop Now" is noted as the first song to feature the lead vocals of Evelyn Escalera.
With the release of The Cover Girls' fourth album "Satisfy" in 1996, the lead vocal duties were performed by Michelle Valentine. The line up included members Damie, Gayle and Shelia for this album only. The singles from this album are "I Need Your Lovin'" and "I Am Woman." The group went on hiatus after the release of "Satisfy." In early 2012, Sabater, Jackson and Urban reunited and now tour as The Original Cover Girls. Wright is expected to rejoin the line-up as well in 2014. Until 2012, Sabater toured singing Cover Girls songs under the name 'Angel (The Original Cover Girl)'. Sabater has had solo success on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart as Angel Clivillés.
We Can't Go Wrong
The Cover Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And there were nights that I would cry myself to sleep and wonder why
Now I don't want to tell you how to live
Don't want to put the blame
But don't you think it's time for you and I
To try to make a change
(Loving one another]
We can't go wrong
(Caring for each other]
We can't go wrong
If the love we have is real
We can't go wrong
There was a time when things were better than the way they are today
But we forgot the vows we made and love got lost along the way
Now I can tell just by the way you look at me that you feel the same
So don't you think it's time for you and I to try to make a change
We can't go wrong
(Loving one another]
We can't go wrong
(Caring for each other]
We can't go wrong
If the love we have is real
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
(Loving one another]
We can't go wrong
(Caring for each other]
We can't go wrong
If the love we have is real
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
If the love we have is real

No snobby BS to act cool, no faking anything, just beautiful ladies and great music. It was a wonderful time to grow up in the 80s and 90s when female singers were true, genuine, and sincere!
