Eyes Of Innocence

About

Eyes of Innocence is the 8th studio album released by the Miami Sound Machine, and their first English language studio album. This release was the first mainstream release by the Miami Sound Machine. The album was filled with dance-oriented music and became the band's breakthrough album due to the success of the lead single, the dance hit "Dr. Beat", a top ten hit in Australia, the United Kingdom and other places in Europe. "Dr. Beat," a dance-pop song was the most successful cut from the album; the song utilizes synthesizers and dance rhythms of the time, but distinguished itself from other pop music of the era through the inclusion of Latin sound. The second single "Prisoner of Love" was released exclusively to the European market, which was responding much better to the album than the American market had. However, the song, which had a similar sound to the past single, was not a hit like the lead single and was a commercial failure only reaching the Top #98 of the UK singles chart. Due the failure of the single "Prisoner of Love", another single was released to the American market, "I Need a Man" (a different song from the Eurythmics hit), but it too bombed, failing to even enter the dance chart. With the failure of the last two single, no more singles were released to promote the album except in the Philippine, where "I Need Your Love" was issued as a promo single only; again, it failed to impact any chart. .
