Dance diva Amber is famous for her large catalogue of dance songs which includes “This is Your Night,” “If You Could Read My Mind,” and “Sexual (Li Da Di),” to name just a few. She also has four studio albums,Ten Dance Songs by Dance Diva Amber That You’ve Never Probably Heard of But Should Add to Your Dance Articles namely “This is Your Night,”, “Amber,” “Naked,” and “My Kind of World,” a greatest hits, and two compilations to her credit. Amber’s back catalogue is full of lesser known gems, which in a different time or under different circumstances could well have been mainstream hits in their own right. Here’s our recommendations for dance songs by Amber that you've probably never heard of but should add to your dance music collection: 1. You Move Me (HiNRG). "You Move Me" was the first single from Amber's independently released album "My Kind of World". This alt rock influenced dance song was Amber's first attempt at reinventing herself after leaving her major label. "You Move Me" was a top five hit on the Billboard Dance Club Play chart. 2. Don't Say Goodbye. "Don't Say Goodbye" originally appeared on Amber's "Naked" CD. It was released as a digital single in 2007. 3. Sacrificial Lamb. If ever there was an obvious Amber single that never saw the light of day, it's "Sacrificial Lamb". This mid tempo track from "My Kind of World" was a favourite of fans and critics alike. 4. Without You. Written by Amber with “Crush” (Jennifer Paige) songwriters Bernie Cosgrove and Kevin Clarke, “Without You” is a dance track from the “Amber” album. "Amber" included four #1 hits, namely "If You Could Read My Mind," "Sexual (Li Da Di)," "Above the Clouds," and "Love One Another," and due to this embarassment of riches, the singleworthy "Without You" was overlooked. 5. Anyway (Men Are From Mars) (Al B. Rich). "Anyway" was the third and final single from "Naked" (2001) and the first to feature lyrics written entirely by Amber. The Al B. Rich remix helped propel the track to #13. 6. Object of Your Desire. "Object of Your Desire" is another track from the Amber catalogue with hit potential that never received a single release. It was, however, featured in the red hot tv series "Sex and the City" along with another Amber track "Above the Clouds". 7. Taste the Tears. Written by Diane Warren (Celine, Mariah, Whitney, Cher) and produced by Thunderpuss, "Taste the Tears" had all the makings of a hit but it was never widely promoted. Although it received the single treatment in Japan, it was not commercially released in America. 8. Dirty Thoughts. With it's provocative title and killer chorus, "Dirty Thoughts" would have made a great followup single to the chart topping "Yes". The track was cowritten by Amber with Arnie Roman, whose songs have been recorded by Celine Dion, Taylor Dayne, and Cher. 9. Voodoo. Although "Voodoo" received little mainstream exposure, it was a Top Ten hit on the dance chart. It also got plenty of play in the clubs thanks to the Ugly Doll mix. 10. Spiritual Virginity. According to Amber, "Spiritual Virginity" was seriously considered as a single from her 1999 album "Amber". Label decisionmakers thought the song had potential but ultimately decided to go with "Love One Another" instead.
