It also produced the highest-peaking single of her career on the Billboard Hot 100, which notably peaked at number three.[4] To date, the album has sold over 5 million copies worldwide.Шаблон:Cn In 1990, Baker released her fourth studio-album Compositions. It peaked at number five on the Billboard 200 and number seven on the UK Albums Chart.
