Produced by Arif Mardin, the album followed the success of her 1982 hit \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eYou Should Hear How She Talks About You\u003c\/span\u003e and aimed to capitalize on the dance-pop trend, blending upbeat tracks with heartfelt ballads. Despite its quality, the album struggled commercially, partly due to insufficient promotion by Arista, and it became her final LP for the label. Standout tracks include the ballads \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eWhite Rose\u003c\/span\u003e, co-written by Manchester and Kevin DeRemer, and \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eTime\u003c\/span\u003e, a collaboration with Carole Bayer Sager and Burt Bacharach, both praised as some of her finest. The lead single, \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eNo One Can Love You More Than Me\u003c\/span\u003e, reached No. 75 on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1984, reflecting modest chart success amidst a changing musical landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52793669746969,"sku":"AL 8-8094","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-melissa_manchester-emergency-02.jpg?v=1783554107","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/al-8-8094","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
