and some fans have also mentioned that in the 80s Diana really wasn't focusing on pop charts. her absolute #1 priority was raising her girls and then her marriage to Arne. but she was also going into other business ventures and things so i guess she maybe just viewed recording as table stakes. she just sort of fulfilled her commitments and that's it. her first album was a huge seller [[even if some people think it's less than what she could have done). so she's severed her ties with Berry, produced an album that sold a ton, generated 2 Top 10 hits. and that's that. anything after that was really just icing on the cake
