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.
