[edit] Musical career
They climbed to number 75 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1983, with a mashup medley of Steely Dan's "Do It Again" and Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean". In 1991, they hit number-one on the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart with "Deep In My Heart".
The same two songs in Clubhouse's 1983 medley were also recorded as a dance medley by the Detroit, Michigan band, Slingshot, who hit number-one on the dance chart with their own cover versions.[citation needed]
Clubhouse are also renowned for their dance single "Light My Fire" (featuring Carl) which peaked at number 7 in the UK Singles Chart in April 1994.[1] Their follow-up single, "Living In The Sunshine", was not quite so successful as it only managed number 21 in the UK in July the same year.[1]
