[edit] Career
In 1996, No Mercy released their debut album titled My Promise and produced two Hot 100 Top 40 hits, including "Where Do You Go" (a cover of La Bouche's "Where Do You Go"), which hit number 5. This was followed by the single "Please Don't Go" which reached number 21. In early 1997, No Mercy released a romantic ballad titled "When I Die", from the same album.
Their remake of the band Exile's #1 song from 1978, "Kiss You All Over", also became a number 1 hit on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 1998.
No Mercy's second album, More, included singles such as "Hello How Are You", "More Than A Feeling" (originally recorded by Boston) and "Tu Amor" also achieved success.
In 2002, a single, "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", was released to gauge support for No Mercy's third album. The producer decided to instead rework the songs for solo artist Daniel Lopes' debut album, Shine On, in 2003. No Mercy are featured on the track "Summer Angel" of Lopes' album.[citation needed]
In October 2007, No Mercy released their third album, Day By Day, under a new Australian-based independent record label, Show No Mercy Entertainment pty ltd, and via iTunes.
