Simon Climie Rob Fisher

Climie Fisher was a UK pop duo formed by vocalist, Simon Climie (born 7 April 1960) and former Naked Eyes keyboardist, Rob Fisher (5 November 1956 - 25 August 1999).

Career

The duo is best known for the hit single "Love Changes (Everything)" which reached Number 2 in the UK & Number 23 in the U.S. in 1987, and the hip hop-styled remix of "Rise To The Occasion", which was their breakthrough hit, reaching Number 10 in the same listing.

Rob Fisher died 25 August 1999 during surgery for bowel cancer, whilst Simon Climie became a producer for recording artists such as Louise and MN8, as well as co-writer and musician on many of the more recent albums by Eric Clapton.

Half Man Half Biscuit recorded a song entitled "The Ballad of Climie Fisher", which recounts an entirely concocted tale of a feud between Climie and Fisher. It appears on their album Trouble Over Bridgwater.
