[Chorus]
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me, come back to me

[Verse 1]
Everyone was watching
You were the freakiest thing on show
Dazzle in the crystal ball
They only loved to watch you glow
You were the center of attention
The eye of the storm
A whirlwind from outer space
Like a twister on the scene

[Chorus]
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me, come back to me

[Verse 2]
Mesmerize them when we danced
'Cause you sparkle next to me
We sit along the razor's edge
But you were crazy to be free
I agonize till you come back
And we'll dance that close again
I miss you boy, I really do
Come back to me, come back to me
'Cause my world stopped spinning
Nothing I can do so I pray that a DJ lifts my heart

[Chorus]
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me, come back to me
The music's no good without you, baby
The music's no good at all
The music's no good without you, baby
Come back to me
The music's no good, the music's no good
The music's no good, come back to me
Come back, the music's no good
But I know you don't need me anymore
(The music's no good)
And it's no good dwelling in the past
(The music's no good)
I have to live each day
(Come back) Like it was my last

Cher

Cher is an American singer, songwriter, actress, model, fashion designer, television host, comedian, dancer, businesswoman, philanthropist, author, film producer, director, and record producer.

Cher gained popularity in 1965 as one-half of the folk rock husband–wife duo Sonny & Cher after their first hit, “I Got You Babe”. She began her solo career simultaneously, releasing in 1966 her first million-seller song, “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”. After the duo had lost its young audience owing to their monogamous, anti-drug lifestyle during the period of the sexual revolution and the rise of the drug culture, she returned to stardom in the 1970s as a television personality with her shows The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, watched by over 30 million viewers weekly during its three-year run, and Cher. She became a fashion trendsetter by wearing elaborate outfits on her television shows. While working on television, she established herself as a solo artist with the number-one singles “Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves”, “Half-Breed”, and “Dark Lady”. After her divorce from Sonny Bono in 1975, Cher’s much-publicized personal life led to a decline in her career, although she launched a minor comeback in 1979 with the disco-oriented album Take Me Home and earned $300,000 a week for her 1980–1982 residency show in Las Vegas.

In the early 1980s, Cher made her Broadway debut, and then starred in the film Silkwood. Her performance earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1983. In the ensuing years, she starred in films such as Mask, The Witches of Eastwick, and Moonstruck. She made her directorial debut in the 1996 film If These Walls Could Talk. At the same time, she established herself as a rock singer by releasing platinum albums such as Heart of Stone (1989) and top-ten singles such as “I Found Someone” and “If I Could Turn Back Time”. She reached a new commercial peak in 1998 with the song “Believe”, which features the pioneering use of Auto-Tune, also known as the “Cher effect”. Her 2002–2005 Living The Farewell Tour ended up as the highest-grossing music tour by a female artist then. In 2008, she signed a $60 million per-year deal to headline the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for three years. After seven years of absence, she returned to film in the 2010 musical Burlesque. Cher’s first studio album in 12 years, Closer to the Truth, became her highest-charting solo album in the U.S. to date.
