Stay Another Day

East 17 (also called E-17) English pop boy band started by Tony Mortimer, Brian Harvey, John Hendy, and Terry Coldwell in 1991. As of 2020, the group consists of Coldwell, Robbie Craig and Joe Livermore. East 17 have undergone multiple lineup changes, with Coldwell remaining the only constant member.

East 17 was named from the first part of their post code and their first album was named after their hometown Walthamstow in Greater London.

The group has achieved 18 top-20 singles and four top-10 albums and was one of the UK’s most popular boy bands during the early- to mid-1990s, aided by strong tabloid interest in their ‘bad boy’ image, compared to the clean-cut style of rivals Take That.

East 17 has sold over 18 million albums worldwide and according to the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), the group has been certified with sales of 1.8 million albums and 2.6 million singles in the UK. The most famous songs of the band: «House of Love», «Steam», «Stay Another Day», «It’s Alright» и «Let It Rain» written by the author and band member Tony Mortimer. Debut album Walthamstow reached the first position in UK Albums Chart.

The group continues today under the lineup of Terry Coldwell, Joe Livermore, and former Artful Dodger collaborator Robbie Craig
