Career
1995–1997: My Promise
In 1995 the band released their single "Missing" which was a cover version of Everything but the Girl's 1994 hit. No Mercy released their debut album My Promise on October 21, 1996. My Promise was the original title chosen by the band's German record company, Hansa, BMG. The album was released in the U.S. only a week later under the self title No Mercy on October 29, 1996. The album, however, was released in most areas of the world with its original title My Promise, including Australia where it received two times platinum sales accreditation. My Promise which became a top-5 album in countries like Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Switzerland, produced two internationally popular singles, including "Where Do You Go" and "When I Die", the first being a cover of La Bouche's "Where Do You Go" from 1995 and the latter a revival of The Real Milli Vanilli original song; The Real Milli Vanilli is also a spin off of Milli Vanilli. Both projects are brainchildren of Frank Farian. This was followed by the single "Please Don't Go", which entered the top 5 in Austria and the U.K.
