I would have had this number 40 down as a record that's known in the dance music world but not to the wider public. However with just 558 views on YouTube in 9 years at the time of writing maybe it is just obscure generally.
Sister Bliss these days is best known for being a member of Faithless. She made her Top 40 debut in 1994 with "Cantgetaman Cantgetajob (Life's A Bitch)" which made number 31. This also feature the vocalist Colette, but I can't find anything about her on the internet.
Both records were part of the hardbag scene and were co-written by her Faithless bandmate Rollo. Likewise she was co-writer on Rollo's 1995 hit "Love Love Love - Here I Come" which was also part of the hardbag scene.
It was just weeks later that Faithless made their Top 40 debut with "Salva Mea" but it would take another year with the re-issue of their 2nd Top 40 hit "Insomnia" until they became household name.
Sister Bliss did have two further Top 40 hits outside of Faithless but both were in the lower reaches of the chart.
