Source-derived summary

Boy Krazy is the only album by girl group Boy Krazy, released on February 23, 1993. It was produced by Mike Stock and Pete Waterman, except "That's What Love Can Do" and "Good Times with Bad Boys", which are a Stock Aitken Waterman production. Each member of the group sings the lead vocals on at least two songs on the album, which includes many tracks written for Kylie Minogue had she stayed on Stock Aitken Waterman's PWL label. The album includes their biggest hit "That's What Love Can Do", as well as the singles "All You Have to Do" and "Good Times with Bad Boys". A planned fourth single, "Love is a Freaky Thing", was never released as Johnna Cummings left the group in late 1993.

Album release

The album was released in North America first, and then throughout Europe and Asia. The American releases feature a guitar-driven version of the track "On a Wing and a Prayer", whereas the European and Asian releases feature a mix more similar to Stock Aitken Waterman's typical Europop. Two of the tracks on the album, "That Kinda Love" and "Love Is a Freaky Thing", had been previously recorded by R&B group The Cool Notes, who worked with Stock & Waterman in 1991, but their versions were never released at the time. The latter was released through iTunes in 2009. "One Thing Leads to Another" had previously been released in 1990 by pop duo Yell!.

The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1993, 1991, 2009, 1990—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1993-01-01. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Krazy and album.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Boy Krazy (album)” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Krazy and album provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Reception evidence should be dated and situated: later canonical status may differ sharply from the work’s initial circulation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4952087. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1993, 1991, 2009 and 1990.

Critical limits

Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
