''Back in Your Arms'' is the third official compilation album by French singer Amanda Lear, released in May 1998 by Dig It Int'l. The release follows her two previous greatest hits albums, ''Ieri, Oggi'' (1982) released in Italy, and ''Poet Amanda Lear'' (1990) released in the former U.S.S.R.. ''Back in Your Arms'' combines re-recordings of nine of her hits from her career in the 70's with selected remixed tracks from her 1995 euro disco album ''Alter Ego'' and also contains a previously unreleased cover version of Louis Prima's swing classic "Just a Gigolo". ''Back in Your Arms'', which only met with limited commercial success on its original release, was subsequently re-launched on the German market by BMG-Ariola as ''Amanda '98 - Follow Me Back in My Arms'' with a revised tracklisting. Since the company held the rights to the original recordings, they replaced most of the Italian re-interpretations with these as well as adding tracks not included on its Italian predecessor. == Album information == In 1998 Lear decided to re-record nine of her best known songs from the disco era for the album ''Back in Your Arms''; "Blood and Honey", "Queen of Chinatown", "These Boots Are Made for Walkin' " and "Tomorrow", all originally from 1977 debut album ''I Am a Photograph'', "Follow Me" and "Enigma (Give a Bit of Mmh to Me)" from 1978 ''Sweet Revenge'', "Fashion Pack" and "The Sphinx" from 1979 ''Never Trust a Pretty Face'', and "Fabulous (Lover, Love Me)" from 1980 ''Diamonds for Breakfast''. ''Back in Your Arms'' was co-produced by Michael Gordon, who previously had worked with Lear on her latest studio album at the time ''Alter Ego''. The compilation was issued by minor label Dig It Int'l and released only on the Italian market. The compilation was set to be released throughout Europe in September under the name ''Number 10'', but later that same year, on October 5, German BMG-Ariola instead re-released it under the title ''Amanda '98 - Follow Me Back in My Arms'', and then chose to replace most of the Italian re-recordings with the original Ariola versions, all recorded in Munich in the seventies and early eighties. Throughout October and the beginning of November 1998 ''Amanda '98 - Follow Me Back in My Arms'' was released in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, and in all the Nordic and Eastern European countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Back in Your Arms」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
