A fine example of Lisa’s songcraft and her ability to capture a soap opera in a song, ‘Billionaire’ is, according to Lisa, “all about love. It’s all about money. The rest is up to you….”
If I had a dollar for every time you said you love me I’d be a billionaire
If I walked a mile for every time you meant the words I’d still be right here
Written by Lisa and her song-writing partner Ian Devaney, produced by Ian & Mark “Snowboy” Cotgrove, and with Lisa taking the role of executive producer, ‘Billionaire’ is the iconic soul singer’s new single. Speaking about the ‘Deeper’ the Grammy nominated, multi BRIT, Ivor Novello and Silver Clef Award winner said “creating this album was a wonderful adventure. I really believe there’s a special something in this record. I’m so excited to let it go out into the big wide world with pride.”
Lisa’s contribution to British soul is undeniable with a string of hit singles including All Around The World, All Woman, The Real Thing and many award winning albums. Her unmistakable voice has been a constant presence on the dance floor and airwaves ever since 1989. Most recently she returned to the Top 20 of the UK album charts with her 7th studio album ‘Seven’. A gorgeous and personal collection of her trademark soul, the 2014 record was a reminder of why Lisa has sold nearly 20 million records worldwide and had a string of international top 10 hits. And with ‘Deeper’ her successful streak shows no signs of stopping.
