Kathy Troccoli – Pure Attraction (1991) (US release 2nd edition 1992) mp3+flac

In my opinion one of the best albums ever released. First time I heard it I was sold and I still count is as a major favorite.
Pure Attraction is the fourth full-length album by singer-songwriter Kathy Troccoli. It saw her moving slowly away from Christian music and into pop territory, with two songs written by Diane Warren. It featured the top five CCM and top twenty pop hit “Everything Changes”, and featured seven songs co-written by Troccoli.
Dianne Warren had written and composed the song “Everything Changes” for Taylor Dayne.
