===1992β1993: ''Shadows and Light'' and breakup=== In June 1992, Wilson Phillips released their second album, ''[[Shadows and Light (Wilson Phillips album)|Shadows and Light]]''. The album was deeply personal and adopted a more serious tone, with tracks exploring issues such as child abuse ("Where Are You") and their estrangement from their fathers ("Flesh and Blood", "All the Way From New York"). The first single, "[[You Won't See Me Cry]]," peaked at number 20 in the US and number 18 in the UK, the first time they had a higher-ranking single in the UK than in the US. The single gave them a hit in the US and the UK, and saw the album peak at number four on the US ''Billboard'' 200, and it was eventually certified platinum in the US. However, the second single "[[Give It Up (Wilson Phillips song)|Give It Up]]" became a moderate hit, peaking at number thirty, and third single "Flesh and Blood" failed to crack the Hot 100. Shortly after, the group decided to break up, parting just after their second album. Chynna Phillips announced plans for a solo career,<ref>{{cite book|last=Betts|first=Graham|title=Complete UK Hit Albums 1956-2005|publisher=Harper Collins|page=[https://archive.org/details/collinscompleteb0000bett/page/447 447]|year=2005|isbn=978-0007205325|url=https://archive.org/details/collinscompleteb0000bett/page/447}}</ref> however, the group performed the US national anthem in a baseball stadium.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y1cboVpI3Q|title = 1992 ASG: Wilson Phillips performs national anthem|website = [[YouTube]]| date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> Less than a year after the release of their second album, the group had gone their separate ways. In 1993, Wendy and Carnie Wilson released the Christmas album ''[[Hey Santa!]]'', a collection of classic Christmas songs which included an original song, "Hey Santa". In 1995, Chynna Phillips released a solo album, ''[[Naked and Sacred]]''. Also in 1995, Carnie went on to host her own short-lived syndicated television talk show titled ''Carnie!''<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0933139/|title=Carnie Wilson|website=IMDb}}</ref> In 1997, Carnie and Wendy, along with their father [[Brian Wilson]], released the album ''[[The Wilsons (album)|The Wilsons]]'' and the single "Monday Without You."<ref name=carnieandwendy>{{cite web |url=http://www.carnieandwendywilson.com/ |title=Carnieandwendywilson.com |publisher=Carnieandwendywilson.com |date=January 1, 2004 |access-date=2011-12-04 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111205033350/http://carnieandwendywilson.com/ |archive-date=December 5, 2011 }}</ref> [[Capitol Records]] released a Wilson Phillips ''[[Greatest Hits (Wilson Phillips album)|Greatest Hits]]'' album in 2000. On March 29, 2001, the group reunited to perform The Beach Boys' song "You're So Good to Me" at a tribute show to Brian Wilson held at New York's [[Radio City Music Hall]]. Chynna Phillips also dedicated the performance to her father John Phillips, who had died a few days earlier.{{citation needed|date=June 2015}}
