Sue and Sunny were a British vocal duo and session singers operating in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Although sisters, their full stage names were Sue Glover and Sunny Leslie. For three years they were members of British pop group The Brotherhood of Man.
Born Yvonne Wheatman ('Sue') and Heather Wheatman ('Sunny') in Madras, India they made their recording debut together in 1963 under the name The Myrtelles with their cover version of Lesley Gore's "Just Let Me Cry" on the small and lesser-known Oriole record label. The single was not successful and the girls decided on a change of name, to The Stockingtops. In 1965 they sang backing vocals on Alex Harvey's single "Agent OO Soul" / "Go Away Baby" (Fontana - TF 610), produced by Chris Blackwell of Island Records.
In 1966, when Sunny (the younger of the pair) was still only 15, the two turned professional doing the cabaret circuit. After three years they decided that their audiences were too old for them, and went to Germany to play the airbase circuit, where, despite releasing two German singles, they still felt out of place and returned to London.
I was about 10 years old. It was a beautiful spring
day.
I was taking a shortcut through the forest when a
strange... wind... began to blow.
The second time... was many years later.
I was coming back from church... when suddenly... the
same... violent... wind.
Everything was moving so fast. So fast.
The wind, the clouds... I couldn't move... I couldn't
breathe!
Then I knew that God had chosen me, but I did not
understand what He wanted me to do.
What was my mission? What could I do?
"And what exactly was this vision wearing?"
"I don't remember."
"This vision, did it give you anything? Anything by
which we can verify your claim?"
"He gave me good advice."
"We feel that if God wanted us to believe you, He'd
have sent a sign... with you.
A sign to prove that you are sent by God."
The hunters sensing innocence
My trail of blood they've found
Leading to the fallen angel
I'm crying on the ground
My wings crushed into pieces
They spread across the land
And longing for the splinters
I painfully cut my hand
Like a scarlet lover
My blood kisses the snow
The hunters are crawling closer
My tears like rivers flow
A cold black rain is pouring
On my naked skin
The hunter's lips have touched me
They've poisoned me with sin

Reaching out for saviours
I drown in a dark embrace
They drink my blood of beauty
While claws caress my face
The realm of pain is rising
I hold my breath and pray
While falling into shadows
My senses fade away
Whispering lies of healing
To give me all I need
While left alone in darkness
Towards death I slowly bleed
Forever lost my kingdom
A tear is my last kiss
I know, a fallen angel
At home they never miss
Just send a sign
Just send a sign
Send a sign
