Yeah she was huge in the UK for a few years, her debut album is the 5th best selling female album of all time in the UK. It's 10 times platinum.
She actually believe it or not has the most Top 5 hits by a British Female Solo Artist with 9 to her name.
She still tours the UK and releases albums, though with each album release she has sold considerably less than before (her last sold dreadfully) and her tours have went from the huge arenas to the smaller venues (3000 to about 5000 capacities), so she has been on a steep decline ever since Spirit sadly.
But her career is nothing to be sniffed at, its just a shame that she never had a great label or smart management in those early years to help advance her and keep her at the top.
