Clive Bruce is a well-known South African country artist. His stepmother, Virginia Lee - the "Queen of Song" of the early 1960's - introduced him to the recording studio in the 1960s, and in 1970 he recorded "Sally Sunshine" which went to No.1 on the then popular LM Radio Top 20, and to number 11 on the South African Top 20 in 1971. He also did radio adverts and sang harmony for many well-known artists of the time, and he was the first voice of "Sarel Seemonster" on the popular Afrikaans TV show called 'Wielie Walie'.

He did voice copies of international hits for the highly successful Springbok Hits Album series, and was then offered a contract to record a country album called "Ruby, don't take your love to town" which was released in 1978. When TV came on to the scene he appeared with the band "Timepiece", and thereafter was invited to do solo spots on various shows and several New Year Specials.

Around this time he was invited to be a guest on many of Bobby Angel's "Gentle on my Mind" programme, and Lance James started playing his songs on "Keep it Country". In 1985 he was approached to present "Sing Country" on TV4. It was broadcast every Sunday night and recorded at the Zillertal Restaurant in Pretoria.

In 1993 he started presenting "REWIND", a video request programme on TV1 and in 1996 he recorded his first gold album - "One Last Kiss". He has performed in the Sun City Superbowl several times and still continues to travel and perform all around the country.

This song reached number 16 on the South African Top 20 in 1981, and charted for 5 weeks.
