Soul Dancing

Soul Dancing is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Dayne. It was released on July 13, 1993 by Arista Records and peaked at No. 51 on the US Billboard 200. The album includes the singles "Send Me a Lover", "I'll Wait", "Say a Prayer", and her rendition of Barry White's "Can't Get Enough of Your Love". The song "I'll Wait" was featured in the 1994 Disney comedy Blank Check.

Critical reception
Dave Obee from Calgary Herald wrote, "Taylor Dayne is full of life, and as she sings she bites the heads off nails. She growls. Close your eyes, you can see her defiant strut. She even makes a Barry White song sound masculine." Greg Sandow from Entertainment Weekly complimented it as a "killer pop album". He added, "Can’t fault her choice of material; these are crisp, focused, hook-filled pop songs, every one of them a likely radio hit."
