Mel & Kim - Where Is Love

I'm a bit confused about how Mel & Kim are releasing a new single when Mel died in 1990? Is this a reworked demo from 30 years ago or something, anyone know? I can't find much info on it on google either.

Post Malone at #29 already! The chorus is so melodic that I wouldn't be surprised if this was another hit!

The Mel & Kim track is an unreleased demo

from before they got involved with SAW / PWL

 

it is explained in a recent occ article

http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/p...-listen__21663/

Alexandra Burke to smash!

 

Unlikely but I can hope!
