Better the Devil You Know (album)
''Better the Devil You Know'' is the third album by British pop star Sonia.〔(Soniaontheweb.com | Sonia discography )〕 It was released on the back of her entry into the 1993 Eurovision Song Contest with the title track.
== Overview ==
Released in May 1993, the album followed Sonia's appearance in the Eurovision Song Contest. The previous year, Sonia had been selected to be the UK representative and she performed all eight songs in the Song for Europe. The 1992 participant Michael Ball had enjoyed great success with his album based on the contest when it reached No.1 in the charts, and Sonia's management were keen to see similar results.〔(Chartstats.com | ''Michael Ball'' Chart details )〕 "Better the Devil You Know" featured four songs from the contest (the top four placed songs: "A Little Love", "Our World", "So Much of Your Love" and the winner "Better the Devil You Know").〔(Geocities.com | 1993 Song for Europe final )〕 However, the album failed to replicate Ball's success and peaked at No.32 in the charts.〔(Chartstats.com | ''Better the Devil You Know Chart'' details )〕 The title track however finished a close second in the Contest and reached No.15 on the UK charts.〔(Chartstats.com | "Better the Devil You Know" Chart details )〕
An earlier single, a cover of the disco hit "Boogie Nights" was also included on the album, while a planned follow-up to the Eurovision song, "Rescue Me" (also a cover) went unreleased.〔(Soniaontheweb.com | Sonia singles discography )〕 This album marked the end of Sonia's hit-making period, which had lasted since 1989. From this point, Sonia concentrated on TV and stage work, while two more singles and a final album failed to find success.
