Lisette Melendez - Together Forever & A Day In My Life (Extended Mixes)
Lisette Melendez is an American freestyle/Latin pop/dance-pop singer. She is best known for her 1991 hits "Together Forever" and "A Day In My Life (Without You)". These songs propelled her debut album Together Forever to gold status with over 700,000 copies sold. Both songs were such big dance music hits that they are credited as helping renew interest in Freestyle music in the early 90s, which had been fading in popularity due to the rise of mainstream pop music and grunge at the time.
Four more albums followed, including her second album True To Life in 1994 which spawned the Billboard Hot 100 hit "Goody Goody" (#53) and "Will You Ever Save Me" which charted on the Rhythmic Top 40 at #38. The album did extremely well in Japan, both commercially and critically, where she won a "Best New Artist" Grammy Award. In 1998, she released her third album, Un Poco De Mi in 1998, a salsa album sung in Spanish. It scored a hit with "Algo de Mi" which peaked at #8 on the Latin Tropical/Salsa Airplay chart and #23 on the Hot Latin Tracks chart. Her fourth album released later in 1998 is titled, "Imagination." The lead single from "Imagination" was "Time Passes By." It did not gain mass radio airplay and success like her previous singles, but it became a moderate hit nonetheless.
In 2005 Melendez teamed up with fellow Freestyle artist Cynthia and released the single "I Can't Change Your Mind" as the duo, Liscyn. She continues to tour as of 2006.
In 2008 Melendez teamed up with famed music producer Carlos "After Dark" Berrios and performed two new tracks "I Need a Lover" and "Don't Ever Say" on albums Don't Look Back Sessions One & Two.
These are the full length versions of her 2 biggest singles, and the 2 best songs to ever come out in 1990 and 1991. If music was still like this today, I'd love listening to it. Unfortunately, it's not, so I'm forced to live in the past.
Note: Together Forever is ripped directly from my CD Maxi single that I had. Unfortunately, I only had the Vinyl for A Day In My Life (Without You), so there are record pops and clicks in it, but it's not bad.
