As a solo performer, she scored a Top 40 hit single in 1984 with "Love Lies Lost", and released one album in 1986, Blue Notes. Terry changed careers, with a focus in film and television production, and moved behind the scenes in the music industry. She has been a producer and executive producer for the TV broadcast of the BRIT Awards since 2001. Recording career Terry was asked to perform on Culture Club's debut album, Kissing to Be Clever, after lead singer Boy George met her at a London club. Her soulful vocals became a key element of the Culture Club sound on the group's debut album and its follow-up, Colour by Numbers. She is featured in several of the band's videos, including "Time (Clock of the Heart)", "Church of the Poison Mind", "It's a Miracle", "Black Money", "That's the Way", "Victims", and often appeared on television with them. Her solo career began in 1984 on Culture Club's label Virgin with the single "Love Lies Lost" (which she wrote in collaboration with group members Boy George and Roy Hay). The single went to No. 34 in the UK, reached the same position in Australia, and was a No. 28 hit in Ireland. That year she also co-wrote and recorded "Now You're Mine" with producer Giorgio Moroder for the soundtrack to the film, Electric Dreams, and released the single "Stuttering". In 1985, she recorded "Take That Look Off Your Face" for the multi-artist tribute album Performance - The Very Best Of Tim Rice & Andrew Lloyd Webber. She also guested on backing vocals on the track "Take Me Home" on Phil Collins' No Jacket Required. Terry's album Blue Notes was released in 1986, and was produced by Don Was with contributions from Stewart Levine and Christopher Neil. It spawned three singles, "Stuttering", "Act Of Mercy" and "Come On And Find Me". Also in 1986 she recorded "One Summer Day/Duelling Bikes" with Ray Parker Jr. for the 1986 Kevin Bacon movie "Quicksilver"; it reached #96 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Her involvement with Culture Club was minimal after 1985, although she made a guest appearance during Boy George's 1987 UK solo tour and would appear on background vocals on various Boy George projects up until 1990's The Martyr Mantras.
