Artist Biography
Available in:

These are two different artists that are having the name “Clout”.

1. Clout (South African group):

Clout were originally a five-piece, South African all-girl group formed in 1977, best known for their song "Substitute", which sold millions of copies.

"Substitute" was a cover version of an obscure Righteous Brothers song, composed by Willie Wilson. Clout's version reached number two in the UK singles chart for three weeks in June 1978, and number one in New Zealand, Australia, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and South Africa. It only reached number sixty-seven in the U.S. for one week in September 1978, but stayed in the Billboard chart for ten weeks altogether. "Substitute" was then recorded by Gloria Gaynor for single release in the U.S., but radio and club DJs preferred the B-side which became the worldwide hit: "I Will Survive".
