Toyah Wilcox sang its a mystery in the early eighties. Below is the wikipedia encyclopeadia entry for her
Fronting a band known as Toyah, her singing career was slow to take off and the band released six singles in the UK before finally hitting the charts in 1981, with "It's A Mystery" and "I Want To Be Free". In 1983, she was voted Best Female Singer at the British Rock and Pop Awards — since restyled as The BRIT Awards, or "BRITs" — and in 1986 she married UK guitarist Robert Fripp. She was one of the first acts to score regularly in the UK Singles Chart with EPs. Also in 1986, Willcox sang lead on the Tony Banks track "Lion of Symmetry". However her chart career was short lived, only four singles made the UK top twenty, and by 1987 she could only just scrape into the top fifty with her version of Echo Beach.
Since then, she has become a well-known (and more conventional) face on television and in theatre. She has played straight roles, including in Quatermass (1979) and in Shakespeare plays, and appeared as a presenter of programmes such as Songs of Praise, Holiday (BBC), and Good Sex Guide Late as well as being a guest panellist on several shows. In 1984 she starred opposite Sir Laurence Olivier in The Ebony Tower.
In 1999, she took the lead in the children's television series, Barmy Aunt Boomerang. She also provided the voices for the children's television programmes, Teletubbies and Brum. She has also appeared in the reality television series I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and I'm Famous and Frightened!.
