* These were big Top 40 hitsThanks, Homei! Question. I was looking for a better and cleaner version of Timex Social Club’s “Rumors” a few months ago and noticed that iTunes/Amazon have them listed under Club Nouveau. I know the two groups were together at some point and were beefing back in the day, but do you know why Rumors isn’t listed under TSC? Just curious.

Sorry for the late reply. I can only guess. I think the beef became a lawsuit. I remember reading an article about it, and one of the guys from TSC felt cheated and gave up on the music industry. It sounds like the the Club Nouveau faction won. I mixed up the two songs myself in my memory. There were extremely similar.
Wikipedia doesn’t say anything about the controversy directly, but mentions that Club Nouveau’s hit “Jealousy” was:
essentially an answer song responding to Timex Social Club‘s hit “Rumors“
Hmmmmmmm. Finding the real story on old lawsuits is extremely difficult even for well-known cases.
