Cathy Dennis – Move to This (1990)
Move to This is the debut studio album by Cathy Dennis, released in 1990 on Polydor Records and produced by D-Mob (Dancin' Danny D) alongside other collaborators. Dennis had first come to attention as the featured vocalist on D-Mob's 1989 UK Top 5 hit C'mon and Get My Love, and this debut album built on that foundation with a confident, house-influenced dance-pop sound that was perfectly calibrated for the early 1990s club and pop crossover market. The album reached No. 26 in the UK and No. 15 in the US, and spawned four UK Top 20 singles. What makes this album particularly collectible in retrospect is the subsequent career of its artist: Cathy Dennis went on to become one of the most successful pop songwriters of the 2000s, co-writing Kylie Minogue's Can't Get You Out of My Head, Britney Spears' Toxic and Katy Perry's I Kissed a Girl — three of the defining pop singles of the decade. This debut album is a fascinating document of where that extraordinary songwriting talent began.
Highlights
- Touch Me (All Night Long) — The album's biggest hit and Dennis's signature song as a performer; a driving, house-influenced dance-pop track with an irresistible hook and a vocal performance of real confidence and warmth. Its US Top 10 success demonstrated that Dennis's appeal extended well beyond the UK market.
- Just Another Dream — A melodically generous pop track that showcases Dennis's lighter touch; the production is bright and the vocal is warm and appealing, making it one of the album's most immediately accessible and enjoyable moments and giving her a further UK Top 20 hit.
- Too Many Walls — The album's most emotionally direct ballad and one of its most enduring; a warm, piano-led pop song that strips back the dance production and gives Dennis the opportunity to demonstrate a more vulnerable and intimate side of her vocal personality.
- C'mon and Get My Love (with D-Mob) — The track that launched Dennis's career; her collaboration with D-Mob gave her an immediate UK Top 5 hit and introduced her voice to a mainstream audience, and its inclusion here gives the album a satisfying sense of origin and context.
- Move to This — The title track and one of the album's most club-ready moments; a propulsive, house-influenced dance track that showcases the harder edge of Dennis's sound and demonstrates the production instincts that would later make her one of the most sought-after songwriters in pop.
