Code Red were a British boy band, formed in 1996.

Career[edit]

Phillip Andrew Rodell, Neil James Watts, Lee John Missen, and Roger Ratajczak formed themselves as the lineup for the vocal group, and they were signed by Polydor Records. They performed in the 1996 Great British Song Contest singing "I Gave You Everything", and finished as runners-up in the competition.

Their debut album Scarlet was released in 1997, and produced the hits "This Is Our Song", "Is There Someone Out There?" and a cover of the Tevin Campbell original, "Can We Talk".

They appeared in the Sooty & Co. Christmas special 1997 episode "Fun In The Snow", where they performed "If You Go Away".

Two years later, they released Missin You Already, a follow-up album which featured two hits, "What Would You Do If...?" and "What Good Is a Heart", which became a number-two hit on the MTV Asia Hitlist.

The group disbanded in 2001.
