Ellie Campbell

Ellie Campbell is a British singer who released three singles and an album in the late 1990s. Initially touted as the 'next big thing' after winning a GMTV contest to find a singer, Campbell released "Sweet Lies" in 1998, which reached #42 in the UK Singles Chart, "So Many Ways", which ended up being her biggest hit, reaching #26 in August 1999, and "Don't Want You Back", which made #50.

While Campbell was enjoying her chart success, Britney Spears came onto the music scene and the media quickly made comparisons between the two. [ [http://www.stockaitkenwaterman.com/artists/camp06.htm cafe80s: Ellie Campbell news ] ] .

"You're No Good" was due to be the fourth single, but after the album flopped (it missed the Top 200 entirely), plans were shelved, although the single did get a released in the United States, but none of Campbell's singles charted there.

In Australia, "Don't Want You Back" was released as her debut single. It reached #44 in 2001, and was in the charts for 5 weeks. "You're No Good" was released later that year, but failed to chart.

Since this time, very little has been heard of her.
