Cher – Living Proof / WEA Audio CD 2001 / 0927 42463 2UPC 809274246325 Living Proof is the twenty-fourth studio album by American singer Cher. It was first released on November 6, 2001 by WEA and distributed in North America by Warner Bros. Records in 2002. After the commercial success of Believe (1998), Cher began work on her twenty-fourth studio album in 2000. Rob Dickins was chosen as the executive producer for the album, enlisting producers such as Johan Åberg, Chris Cox, Tony Moran, Bruce Roberts, Wayne Rodriguez, Stargate, Chicane, Ray Hedges, and Mark Taylor. Its music incorporates dance-pop, disco and house styles.Upon release, Living Proof received mixed reviews from music critics. Some of them praised the album itself, saying that it was even better than Believe, while others criticized the excessive use of Auto-Tune on Cher's vocals. Commercially, the album did not reach the same success as its predecessor, debuting at number nine on the US Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 82,000 copies. It was received moderately in Europe, peaking within the top 30 in Sweden and the top 50 in the United Kingdom, despite being certified gold by both Swedish Recording Industry Association (GLF) and British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Living Proof is estimated to have sold more than one million copies worldwide.Six singles were released from Living Proof. "The Music's No Good Without You" was released as the album's worldwide lead single, and made Cher one of the few artists to have a top 10 hit in the United Kingdom in five consecutive decades. American lead single "Song for the Lonely" reached number one on the US Dance Club Songs chart. The following singles, "Alive Again", "A Different Kind of Love Song", "When the Money's Gone" and "Love One Another", failed to make much impact on the charts. To further promote the album, Cher made promotional television appearances and embarked on the Living Proof: The Farewell Tour, becoming the longest running concert tour ever in North America and one of the highest-grossing tours by a solo artist, earning an estimated US$250 million. Label:WEA – 0927 42463 2Format:CD, AlbumCountry:EuropeReleased:  Nov 19, 2001Genre:Electronic, Hip Hop, Latin, PopStyle:Dance-pop, Eurodance, Ballad, RnB/Swing, Ambient, Breakbeat    Tracklist:1      The Music's No Good Without YouCo-producer – James Thomas (3), Jeff Taylor (3)Instruments [All] – James Thomas (3), Mark TaylorLyrics By [Additional] – CherMixed By – Mark & JeffProducer – Mark TaylorWritten-By – James Thomas (3), Mark Taylor, Paul Barry4:432 Alive AgainBacking Vocals – Tracy AckermanEngineer – ChicaneProducer – Chicane, Ray HedgesProducer [Additional] – Mark Emmitt, Nigel ButlerProducer [Lead Vocals] – Mark TaylorWritten-By – Chicane, Ray Hedges4:193 (This Is) A Song For The LonelyBacking Vocals – Tracy AckermanGuitar – Adam Phillips, Paul BarryInstruments [All] – Mark TaylorMixed By – Mark TaylorProducer – Mark TaylorWritten-By – Mark Taylor, Paul Barry, Steve Torch4:024 A Different Kind Of Love SongBacking Vocals – Marie Diephuise, Ziggy (14)Bass – J.
