Her version of "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" was a UK hit in March 1977, reaching its peak of Number 18, exactly 20 years before the Madonna version made Number 7. She had earlier reached Number 9 with a version of the 1950s hit "Answer Me" in January 1976, and climbed to Number 11 with "January February" (confusingly enough in April 1980). She went on to score a 1985 UK #1 hit with a duet, 'I Know Him So Well' from Chess, with Elaine Paige.
