ong information

"The Music's No Good Without You" was written, recorded and released in 2001. The song was meant to follow the same success as "Believe" had previously achieved, but was only a hit outside the United States.

The song was internationally released in 2001. It managed to become a top ten hit in the UK and other European countries while everywhere else it became either a top-twenty hit or a top-forty hit. World wide speaking the song was a hit, peaking at a respectable number ten on the United World Chart, and selling two million copies worldwide.

In the United States the album "Living Proof" wasn't released until February 2002 and its lead off single was "Song for the Lonely". By the time "The Music's No Good Without You" along with "A Different Kind of Love Song" were released as a single in the United States, Cher was already on tour and because of this the single struggled from a lack of promotion.

"The Music's No Good Without You" was exclusively released as a club single only. The song peaked the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart at number nineteen.

It became the first single to reach number 1 in Russia by an American artist, and also went to number 1 in Poland.

Music video

The video for "The Music's No Good Without You" follows the concept of the lyrics of the song. In the music video Cher is an outer space queen whom is sad because her lover has left her. Throughout the whole video she writes a letter claiming that she knows he doesn't need her anymore. In the end she places the letter in an empty bottle and sends it floating into space. In the end it appears that this had not been the first letter that she had sent to him because there are dozens of bottles floating in space.

A remix video was made for the "The Music's No Good Without You". The remix video was the entitled Almighty Edit and the remix used for the video was the radio edit of the Almighty mix. The video was officially released by Warner Bros. as a promo only.

In 2001 the video for "The Music's No Good Without You" was commercially released in the UK on a box set which included the video in PAL format. In the box set the song and three promotional pictures were also included.
