Chart positions
Album
The album sold good, but could not quite match the success of the two previous albums, Diamond Life and Promise. While these have been in many countries to number 1 albums, Stronger Than Pride achieved with a 2nd place in the Swedish ( behind Lovesexy by Prince) and Swiss charts ( behind Rütmus, Bluus Schnälli Schue! Polo Hofer and the Schmetterband ) its best rankings.
Singles
As singles Love Is Stronger Than Pride, Paradise, Nothing Can Come Between Us and Turn My Back on You were released. For successful single Paradise was a 16th place in the U.S. and a 29th place in the British charts. However, no single was the high rankings and sales figures of eg Smooth Operator (1984 ) The Sweetest Taboo or (1985 ) reach.
