“From their beginnings in a radio station production suite, Deep Obsession shot to fame very quickly and made history on the official New Zealand Singles Chart with each of their first three singles reaching No.1. The group has the most No.1 hit singles in New Zealand chart history.”

“Zara Clark is a singer and songwriter who performs with bands Tongue & Groove and Deep Obsession whose album Infinity went platinum. Her latest works are the EP Legacy and children’s song Titan the Big Red Truck, a collaboration with writer Joy H Davidson.”

“Deep Obsession flared brightly but briefly in the late 90s, releasing a string of Eurodance songs. They are the “One And Only” act to manage three consecutive number ones on the Kiwi music charts.”

” ‘Cold’ was another number one hit for dance act Deep Obsession. The video (one of two made for this track) arguably takes the title a trifle too little literally: extended studio close-ups of coldly-lit vocalists Zara Clark and Vanessa Kelly in blue eye makeup are contrasted with glimpses of the band performing live. Third member (and later director) Christopher Banks can be seen sporadically. The second of three consecutive chart-toppers for the band, ‘Cold’ saw Banks and Clark nominated for best songwriting at the 2000 NZ Music Awards.”
