Cher, the “Goddess of Pop” and one of the most successful music artists in the world, has revealed that she holds on to a major regret regarding her hit single Believe.
Released in 1998, Believe (which is also the title for the album it features on) was a groundbreaking success, charting at number one in 23 countries and selling more than 11 million copies in the process.
Despite the single going on to become one of the best-selling singles in music history, Cher has revealed that she has some major issues with the song in this week’s episode of BBC Radio 2′s Tracks Of My Years with Vernon Kay.
Speaking to Kay about the single, Cher lamented how she was too afraid to challenge the status quo that she refrained from asking for a writing credit, despite having contributed to the song. “You can’t even image — about 30 people wrote on it. And I was so stupid. I didn’t ask. I didn’t even get a writer’s credit,” she said.
