Each Time

1998 single by E-17

"Each Time" is the first single released by English pop band East 17 under the name E-17, taken as the first single from their fourth studio album, Resurrection (1998). The song marked a major stylistic change for the band following their first split, the departure of member Tony Mortimer, and a change of record labels. Released as a single on 2 November 1998, "Each Time" became the band's final top-10 hit in their native United Kingdom, debuting at number two on the UK Singles Chart, as well as their final chart hit in most other countries, including Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Composition

The album version of "Each Time" is three minutes and forty-seven seconds,[3] but the single version is extended to four minutes and one second.[4] The song diverts from the band's established pop sound in favor of an R&B style in the vein of Stevie Wonder's music from the 1970s.[5]

Critical reception

Music & Media magazine wrote that the band's new R&B sound fit them "surprisingly well".[5] In Oxfordshire, Fox FM head of music Stuart Davies also agreed that the band's new style suited them well and called the song "excellent".[5]
