Lonnie Gordon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lonnie Gordon is a female dance music singer from New York's Bronx, who had several entries on the US Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in the nineties, including three that hit #1. She also had a major UK hit with "Happenin' All over Again", which reached #4 in the main singles chart in 1990. Subsequent singles did less well there, although two reached the Top 40.[1]

Her first US dance #1 was "Gonna Catch You" in 1991, which was featured on the soundtrack to the Vanilla Ice movie Cool as Ice. It also hit #79 on the Hot 100. Her next single "Bad Mood" topped the dance chart in 1993 and was followed by a remixed version of "Happenin' All Over Again," another dance chart #1 that also climbed to #98 on the Hot 100.

Gordon has hit the Top 10 of the US dance chart two more times and her most recent chart entry was in 1996.
