Alannah Myles knew she wanted to be a singer and a star by the age of 5.
Riding high on the success of her first recorded effort, Myles went back into the studio with Ward and Tyson and tried to recreate the magic, but outside the studio things were starting to fall apart.
Putting her into the studio with Pat Moran to produce material written by Myles, Ward and Tyson as well as some songs written by others, the end result was A-Lan-Nah, which Copeland convinced Atlantic to release in 1995.

By the time Alannah Myles recorded her fourth album, Arival, she had faded completely from the pop spotlight.
Neither Rockinghorse or Alannah made much of an impression, so Arival, in some ways, was a make-or-break album -- it would either jump-start her career or grind it to a halt.
Since so much was at stake, Myles did something she never had before -- she concentrated and recorded a well-constructed, cohesive album.

Alannah Myles, never being one who is afraid to experiment, has come a long way since she surprised us with the success of her predominantly one-dimensional, yet wickedly delicious hard-driving self-titled debut [Atlantic A2 81956 1989].
