THE LOST SINGLES

SHOULD-A BEEN HITS

TWIST MY ARM

Pointer Sisters

1986

The Pointer Sisters had enjoyed a string of hit singles in the early 1980s. By 1986, the momentum was slowing down. Only "Goldmine" cracked the US Top 40 that year; the final somg to do so for the trio. "Twist My Arm" deserved to perform well. It was a dance track in the same vein as previous hit "Dare Me" which had reached #11 in America and topped the Billboard Dance Chart in 1985. Both songs were included on the siblings' album 'Contact'.

This regular segment looks back on recordings that deserved to become popular singles but failed to attract attention and sales. Check out the special Caffé Latté playlist on spotify to finally discover these releases.
