Cher - Believe

Believe by Cher Song Info

"Believe" is a Grammy Award winning global number one, Multi-Platinum Dance Song which served as the world-wide lead single for American singer Cher's twenty-third studio album Believe. It is noted for its use of a peculiar sound effect on the singer's vocals, which is referred to as the Cher effect today. "Believe" was written by a number of writers including Paul Barry, Matt Gray, Brian Higgins, Stuart McLellan, Timothy Powell, and Steven Torch. The song, released and recorded in 1998, peaked at number one in 23 countries worldwide .In the second week of March, 1999, it reached number one in the Billboard Hot 100, making Cher the oldest female artist (at the age of 52) to perform this feat. It also was ranked as the number-one song of 1999 by Billboard, and became the biggest single in her entire career. "Believe" also spent seven weeks at number one] in the UK singles chart and is still the best selling single by a female artist in the UK. In March 2007, the United World Chart ranked "Believe" as the sixteenth most successful song in music history. The same chart lists "Believe" as third most successful song released by a solo female musician behind Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" and Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On; [5], the biggest selling single ever for Warner Bros. Records and the biggest selling dance song ever having sold over 10 million copies worldwide. It was also the song with most weeks in the top ten, it stayed in the top ten for 28 weeks. The success of the song not only expanded through each country's singles chart, but also most country's dance charts. In the United States "Believe" spent 23 weeks on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart and 22 weeks on the European Hot Dance Charts. "Believe" also set a record in 1999 after spending 21 weeks in the top spot of the Billboard Hot Dance Singles Sales chart, it was still in the top ten even one year after its entry on the chart. "Believe" was given the featured closing number spot for over 100 performances on Cher's 1999-2000 Do You Believe? Tour and then again the closing spot for over 300 performances on Cher's epic 2002-2005 Living Proof: The Farewell Tour. The song ranked #74 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the 90s. An interesting note about the recording of the song revolved around the highly-recognizable Auto-tune effect ("Cher effect") utilized in the verses and chorus. Producer Mark Taylor added the effect to Cher's vocal simply as a lark, and in interviews at the time, he claimed to be testing out his recently purchased the 'DigiTech Talker'. However, it later emerged that the effect was not created by a vocoder, but by utilizing extreme (and then unheard) settings on auto-tune.When Cher heard the results, she demanded that the effect remain in the song, and her original vocal be erased, much to the chagrin of her record company, who wanted it removed; upon their suggestion, Cher's response to the record label was "over my dead body!"[citation needed] The vocal effect is caused by a pitch correction speed that is "set too fast for the audio that it is processing."

- Another Cher classic.

I used to love her song "Believe" in the 90's! She definately came back. This album sold 5 million copies in America and probably even more worldwide. I like almost all the songs! "All Or Nothing" is underrated. I like her performance of it for her farewell tour. "Love Is The Groove" is another favorite of mine. I am so glad I got this album in the 90's because it's one of my favorites.

- Cher is Awesome!!!

Thank you so much itunes!!! could you add on not commercial please? thats my favorite :):):):)Thank You:):):):)

WOW! I'm only 12 years old but still i find Cher's songs amazing! I LOVE the song Believe!!

- CHER!!!!!!

I love CHER she is an amazing singer :) my fav song from her is Believe :)

- The Quintessential Cher Collection!

Perhaps the most consistant studio album of her career, Cher's "Believe" is oft considered the best dance album of the 1990s. The titanic title track, "Believe", has endured the test of time; nearly ten years since it's initial release, this song sounds as fresh as anything on the dance charts today. The retro "Strong Enough" will leave you longing for white polyester and a gleaming mirror ball. Even the midtempo tracks, like the sexy "The Power" or the groovy "Takin' Back My Heart" will have you toe-tapping, and you may find yourself humming this wonderful collection of songs for days at a time. Thank you, iTunes. My CD was so worn out it's now a coaster.....

- I 'Believe' this album is awesome

thank god this album was added to itunes, its amazing

- what took so long

this was Cher's best selling album EVER!!!!!! i was surprised it wasn't on here sooner. Cher & this album ROCK!!!!

This is one of the best pieces of pop music culture from an icon of popular music and it is about time itunes put it up. Thank you Cher!

- rock on cher =)

i listened to this album so much when i was younger. it made me happy every time i listened to it. it's really a great album; it brings back so many good memories for me. my favorite songs are believe, all or nothing, and strong enough. if you don't buy the whole album, at least buy those three songs. they're worth the money.

- One of the best

Cher is one of the best performers and singers! I've been listening to her forever!! She is awesome! Thanks Cher for being you.

- Ew...**

Okay Cher is like the worst femal singer ever. First she totally does not sound like a girl more like a guy.. Second Idk. She's just not my type of singer at all.. :]

- Cher Is Timeless

I remember being in early High School or Junior High and buying this CD and feeling like a complete loser because Cher was the music your parents and old people listened to. I loved this CD! I also love her Greatest Hits CD, deffinatly a must buy. Believe is an amazing song along with Strong Enough and All Or Nothing. I also really used to like the song The Power. I still remember seeing the music video for Believe on VH1 or MTV during Homeroom and wanting to go buy out and buy her CD. I wasn't sorry that I bought it.

- Great!

There isn't one bad song on this album!

- My childhood in-the-flesh...or plastic.

I still have this album on tape, but I can't turn it into mp3 or CD. My favorite song has to be, of course, Believe. Of course, I love the remix of We All Sleep Alone - I used to dance around my room to that song. I love this album - listening to it brought back so many childhood memories.

- THANK THE LORD IT IS HERE

although i have almost all of cher's albums.this is the one i have been looking for.cher is my idol and i have luved her since i was a child

- I've never heard music like this before.

I first heard of Cher just a week ago. And no other artist has released an album that has gotten me so addicted to it so quickly! Top Songs: BELIEVE, Strong Enough, All or Nothing, Runaway

- Believe!!!<3

Best song ever!!! Cher is Cher. Love you!!!

- YESSS!!!

I dont know how long i have waited for itunes to get this cd.... now they finally have it!!! CHER IS THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME!

- Cher!!!

Love you & your music!! You are awesome & inspiring!!

- Finally!!!!!!

i LOVE CHER I REMEMBER LISTENING TO THIS SONG WHEN I WAS SMALL I'M SOOOOOOO GLAD ITUNES HAS THIS CD!!!!

- Cher is the best

Cher is always good, all her songs so good, you don't find that much. She is one of the greatest singers of all time. She deserves so much, more than anyone would know

- This album is great! BUT..... one problem....

Where the heck is "Alive Again?" And why isn't it on here? That was srsly one of my fave songs on this album. It came out when I was in middle school and I used to listen to it incessantly. :) Other than the absence of "Alive Again," this is perfect!

- Cher Cher Cher "is to Believe"

This CD is the BEST. It's the BEST of 1998. The first time I listened to it, I knew it was going to be a classic. I don't need to go into detail. Most of you already know what an awesome, cool CD this is. If you don't have it, download it. It's worth the $!

- I Do 'Believe'!

When I was little (eight or nine), I got my first MP3 player. My dad helped me with it and everything. On it, he put most of the songs on this album. Little did I know that a) this was a woman, and b) she was older than she looked. Anyway, it's great to finally see this album on iTunes. Thank you, Cher!

- YAY

I can finally listen to Believe which is one of my favorite songs by Cher.

- amazing

wow i was blown away i mean cher can really reinvent herself great songs especially believe!!!!

- Childhood memories!

Ah i loved listening to Cher when i was growing up. I knew every song and every word :) Believe and Dov'e L'amore have got to be my favorites though! Great songs and a great singer, I'm happy her music is finally on here.

- Cher=Beast

I love the song Believe. I remember listening to it when i was like 4!

- Believe...

I love the song Believe but boy does Cher sound like a man! Lol. I first thought a man sang this song when I was young. Still, it has a catchy beat and tune.

- Cher is the best singer ever!

I love all the songs on this album! Cher is the best singer ever!

- I'm Not Surprised

I'm not surprised that iTunes took this long to make this song available. I give it 5 stars because it is an awesome song. But I give iTunes 0 stars because it took this long to make it available for purchase. Rock On!

- Love it!

Awesome! great memories!

- Yes!!!

Cher is awsome i love her i grew up to her and still love to listen to her!!!!!

- YUCK!

Ok..... her voice is sooo... manly... and she looks creepy! her music is sooooo old and annoying. her voice is all.. well like i said! Manly!! SHE STINKS!!!

- Cher is Always the Best

I love Cher's music. Alot. So, I'm glad iTunes finally got some. I wish they had more, like her other movies and music videos, and maybe even the Sonny and Cher TV series. But this album is one of my favorites, so I'm definately gonna buy it one of these days! Cher is my favorite artist EVER!!!

- Love it

Best song is still "All Or Nothing" and "Strong Enough"!

- WHAT
