Chart-topping artist Taylor Dayne took to the H. Ric Luhrs Performing Arts Center stage last Friday.
The Grammy-nominated artist has had three No. 1 singles; “Tell it to My Heart,” “Love Will Lead You Back” and “Prove Your Love.” She also has sold a combined 75 million singles and albums along the way.

Dayne began performing around 8 p.m., kicking off the night with her 1989 hit “With Every Beat of My Heart.”

Once the first song of the night ended, Dayne took a few minutes to speak to the audience. As she began to talk, two women yelled “We love you!” Dayne jokingly replied “Are we there yet? Is it that part of the night already?” The audience laughed and Dayne continued to speak. “I live on the West Coast now, but this East Coast weather is beautiful.” Once she had finished talking to the audience, Dayne began with the second song of the night, her 1987 hit “Don’t Rush Me.” Dayne threw in a few dance moves while performing the hit song. Once Dayne wrapped up the second song, she began to get a bit sentimental.

She spoke about being put into the “Goldmine Magazine Hall of Fame” just this year and reminiscing about her smash hit “Tell it to My Heart.” She also mentioned her film “Telling of the Shoes,” which was released last February and her newest single, “Dreaming”, which was released this month. The audience gave her a huge round of applause. She thanked everyone for joining her on her journey so far.

As the night went on, Dayne performed a few more smash hits consisting of “I’ll Always Love You,” “I’ll Wait,” “Send Me a Lover” and “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love.”

Dayne wrapped up the night with her best selling single “Tell it to My Heart” which was released in 1988 and gave Dayne major exposure.

The catchy pop hit was the song of the night and had just about everyone dancing.

Dayne stayed after the show to talk to fans, sign CDs and take photos with some of the audience members.
