Lynne Hamilton (born 1953) is an English-born singer, notable for her career in Australia, having recorded the single "On the Inside", the theme to the enormously popular cult series Prisoner. Hamilton, now works as an Evangelist Minister.

Early life and career

Hamilton was born in 1953 in Lancashire, the eldest of four children. Her career as a singer began as a teenager when she joined a backing group The Desperadoes. They appeared on the same bill as acts such as The Who, Freddy and the Dreamers and The Animals. She knew the Beatles personally, having been signed with the same record labels and having been on the same TV shows and at the same parties and social promotional events for the record label for four years. She later had a four-year stint as a singer with The Caravelles, who successfully toured in the UK and across Europe.{{citation needed|date=October 2015}} In 1971 Hamilton moved to Australia where she variously owned and operated a car hire company and restaurants.{{citation needed|date=October 2015}}

In 1979 Lynne Hamilton was given the opportunity to sing a song titled "On the Inside", the theme tune for a new Australian soap opera, "Prisoner".[1] "On the Inside" was written by Allan Caswell and was released as a single in Australia. It reached number 4 in the singles chart and sold in excess of 80,000 copies. A follow up album also named On the Inside was released on the Summit label in 1979.

Ten years after this initial success, the song was issued in the UK for the first time. To coincide with the series' first broadcast on UK television the single was rush-released and reached No. 3 on UK singles charts. Hamilton then performed "On the Inside" on Top of the Pops.

In 1989, Hamilton released "In Your Arms (Love song from Neighbours)" for the Australian soap opera Neighbours.
