'''''Affection''''' is the [[debut album]] by [[England|English]] [[pop music|pop]] / [[soul music|soul]] [[singer]] [[Lisa Stansfield]], released in the [[UK]], in November 1989, for [[BMG]]/[[Arista Records|Arista]] label. Entirely written by her husband and musical collaborator Ian Devaney, former school mate Andy Morris (who left her band in 1993), and Lisa herself, the record was widely hailed as one of the finest [[debut album]]s ever by a [[Great Britain|British]] [[soul music|soul]] artist, going straight to number two in the [[UK Albums Chart]]. |
|||
The [[long playing]], with its combination of [[pop music|pop]] / [[soul music|soul]] / [[dance music]], went on to sell almost 5 million copies worldwide, confirming the arrival of a major new star. It was released in multiple editions, in different countries and years, with alternative track listings, including five [[hit single]]s: "[[This Is the Right Time]]" (which does not feature on the original [[vinyl record|vinyl]] [[LP album|LP]] release), "[[All Around the World (Lisa Stansfield song)|All Around the World]]", "Live Together", "What Did I Do to You?" (which came out as a [[12"]] [[EP]]) and was a #25 UK hit, and "[[You Can't Deny It]]" (not released in the [[UK]]) - plus a sixth one, namely "People Hold On" (her very first major hit, performed with [[Coldcut]], also in 1989, but only contained in the 2003 [[remastered]] [[compact disc]] edition). The original 1989 Arista Records United States version features noticeably refined mixes of several of the songs: including "What Did I Do To You?", "You Can't Deny It", and "Just the Way You Want It". |
|||
"[[All Around The World (Lisa Stansfield song)|All Around The World]]", which hit the Number 1 spot on the [[UK Singles Chart]], and Number 3 on the [[Billboard Hot 100|Billboard Hot 100 Pop Chart]] in the [[USA]], was also the first song by a [[white people|white]] female artist to ever reach the top of the [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|U.S. R&B Chart]]. "You Can't Deny It", which was only released in the [[USA]], also topped this latter chart. |
|||
