}} "(If There Was) Any Other Way" is a song by Canadian singer Celine Dion. It was included on her first English-language album, ''Unison'' (1990). "(If There Was) Any Other Way" was released by Columbia Records as the album's lead single in Canada on 26 March 1990. The next year, it was issued as the second single in other countries. The song was written by Paul Bliss, while production was handled by Christopher Neil. After its release, "(If There Was) Any Other Way" received positive reviews from music critics. The song peaked at number twenty-three in Canada and number thirty-five on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Additionally, it became a success on the adult contemporary charts, reaching number eight in the United States and number twelve in Canada. Two accompanying music videos for the song were filmed. Dion performed "(If There Was) Any Other Way" during her Unison Tour (1990–91). ==Background and release== In 1990, Dion was preparing to issue her first English-language album, ''Unison''. After releasing various French-language albums in Canada and France in the 80's, she has recorded new English songs in London, Los Angeles and New York. At first, ''Unison'' was released in Canada and "(If There Was) Any Other Way" was chosen as its lead single. Written by British musician, Paul Bliss and produced by British record producer, Christopher Neil, it was issued on 26 March 1990. One year later, on 18 March 1991, "(If There Was) Any Other Way" was released as the second single in the United States, after "Where Does My Heart Beat Now." For the US market, the single was remixed by Walter Afanasieff. This US version features a different audio mix from the Canadian single version and the album version: reverb has been applied throughout (most noticeably to Dion's vocal track), the guitars have been rebalanced so that they are less audible in some places in the song and more prominent in others, the drum track features "rimshot" effects during the chorus, additional synthesizer lines have been overdubbed onto the existing keyboard track (most noticeably in the bar before the instrumental break), and the fadeout has been slightly extended in length. It was also used in the American music video of the song in that year. Additionally, "(If There Was) Any Other Way" was remixed by Daniel Abraham, a French record producer living in New York. His dance remixes appeared on a promotional US single. "(If There Was) Any Other Way" was also released as a single in selected European countries, Australia and Japan in June 1991. 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「(If There Was) Any Other Way」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
