It also peaked at No. 4 on the Rhythmic Top 40 chart. The success earned her a spot on the 1994 “American Music Awards” as a performer. The follow up single, “Luv 4 Luv” saw similar success.
After taking time off to work on her songwriting, she began working with producers such as Eric “E-Smoove” Miller and Todd Terry on her second album. Released in 1997 on Atlantic Records, From Now On reflected broader interests for Robin S., encompassing Gospel and Contemporary R&B ballds in addition to Hi-NRG dancefloor material. The album’s first single “It Must Be Love” became a hit on the dance chart spending two weeks at No. 1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart. It became a moderate crossover hit on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart peaking at No. 35 and a minor pop hit, peaking at No. 91 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow up single “Midnight” reached No. 3 on the Hot Dance Club Play. Robin S. performed the hit on the Ricki Lake show, the week the single hit Top 10 on the U.S. dance charts. She also appeared on the RuPaul show to promote From Now On, the album sold about 100,000 copies in the U.S. by the end of its albums chart run. Midnight was written by British singer Alison Moyet and it appears on the first Yazoo (band) album, Upstairs at Eric’s.
Robin S. completed a successful European tour in 2004, where her music has historically found a larger audience. She has also become a popular performer at 1990s themed club/dance-pop concerts. As of early 2007, Robin S. was still recording though none of her new material has been released as she is seeking a new record label. Robin S. continued to perform on cruise liners in Europe and Asia.
In 2008, she recorded a new song with the European artist, Honest. In October 2008 the radio mix of her 1993 song “Show Me Love” reached the top of the Dutch Top 40. This makes it Robin S.’s most successful song in the Netherlands.
