Glen Goldsmith was born in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England. In September 1987, he signed a recording contract with RCA, and released his first single "I Won't Cry". It reached No.34 in the UK Singles Chart and was also a dance hit single, staying in the dance chart for nineteen weeks and also gaining chart success in Europe. It climbed to No.3 in Germany. Goldsmith then signed his first publishing deal with Rondor Music. His biggest-selling hit was "Dreaming" (1988), and he promoted it with appearances on several television shows including Top of the Pops and Pebble Mill and many Saturday morning shows including the early morning BBC 9 o'clock news. "Dreaming" reached No.12 in the UK. His album, What You See Is What You Get, was released in July 1988, and peaked at No.14 in the UK Albums Chart. His other RCA hit singles included "What You See Is What You Get" peaking at No.33 in the national chart and "Save a Little Bit".

Goldsmith co-wrote and recorded "You Got Me Dancing" with the American producer Jaee Logan for his second album, Don't Turn This Groove Around, which was also released by RCA Records. The single was released in 1989 featuring M.C. Hammer. It was Hammer's first release in the UK. Hammer also appeared in Glen Goldsmith's music video for this song.
