Cher has hand signed in black ink the CD inlay card to this copy of her CD Single “Believe.”
“Believe” is a song by American recording artist Cher. It was released on November 24, 1998 as the lead single from her twenty-third studio album of the same name. It was written by Brian Higgins, Stuart McLennen, Paul Barry, Steven Torch, Matthew Gray, and Timothy Powell and produced byMark Taylor and Brian Rawling. It has since become one of the best-selling singles of all time, selling more than 10 million copies worldwide. It won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording at the 42nd Grammy Awards and also received a nomination for Record of the Year. Musically, “Believe” is a dance-pop song that incorporates elements of techno, eurodance and house music and samples the songs “Prologue” and “Epilogue” by British rock group Electric Light Orchestra from their 1981 concept album Time.
It also uses heavy amounts of Auto-Tune, which has since become one of the song’s most notable features. The song has received generally positive reviews from music critics, with some calling the song “catchy” and the “best thing Cher has recorded in years”. It topped the charts in more than ten countries worldwide, becoming one of the most commercially successful singles to date. It was certified Platinum by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), selling more than 1 million in the United States. An accompanying music video was directed by Nigel Dick and features Cher in a nightclub performing the song in two different sequences: one in which she is seen performing the song on stage and the other as a supernatural being locked in a cage.
