The first single did reasonably well however, the two follow-up singles did not fare so well. The group started after Elson wrote a song called 'Comin' On Strong', which a friend of his Oliver Smallman, heard the song and thought it was too good to be a one-off novelty song and encouraged Elson to put together a band and record more material. Broken English were a British rock band formed in 1987 by Steve Elson (singer and guitarist), who at the time performed in a Rolling Stones tribute band.
