Finally was the first song CeCe Peniston wrote
Teenage beauty pageant and backup singer CeCe Peniston wrote a poem in a chemistry class which turned into her first song, the title of her debut album and breakthrough single.
As a worldwide hit in 1991, Finally was everywhere and so was CeCe. This became overwhelming for the young singer who never managed to follow up on the smash debut.
Based on a four-bar, piano-led chord progression, this is a great song for bands who play weekends for people who want to dance.
