Will to Power, led by producer Bob Rosenberg, achieved significant early success with their 1986 track ‘Dreamin’.’ Initially released on Thrust Records, the song gained regional popularity before Epic Records distribution led it to No. 50 on the Billboard Hot 100 in August 1987 and No. 15 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart. This success led to the group’s signing with CBS/Epic Records in April 1987 and the release of their self-titled debut album in March 1988.
It also achieved No. 2 on the adult contemporary chart and No. 6 on the UK Singles Chart. The self-titled album reached No.
68 on the Billboard 200 that same month. Will to Power continued this momentum into early 1989 with the single ‘Fading Away,’ which also topped the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for two weeks. Will to Power released their second album, ‘Journey Home,’ in late 1990, featuring Elin Michaels as the primary female vocalist. This album included a cover of 10cc’s ‘I’m Not in Love,’ which became another substantial hit, reaching No.
7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 4 on the adult contemporary chart in early 1991. The track also charted at No. 29 on the UK singles chart, while the ‘Journey Home’ album itself peaked at No.
These later releases reinforced Will to Power’s legacy of innovative dance-pop and continued to engage their dedicated fanbase, showcasing a proven track record of broad audience appeal across multiple decades.
