Phyllis Nelson.

Phyllis Nelson was an experienced disco singer and her 1985 single Move Closer was a radical departure into all-out soulful schmaltz that clambered slowly but purposefully to No.1 for a single week. Not many records entering the charts at No.90 can hope to end up at No.1, but Move Closer did. It climbed for 12 consecutive weeks until it hit the top for a solitary week in May 1985. It spent 10 weeks in the Top 10 in total and nearly six months on the chart – only six songs outsold it that year.
