"Wasn't It Good" is a song written by producers Bob Esty and Michele Aller. The song was originally recorded by American singer-actress Cher.
"Wasn't It Good" was released as the second single from Cher's 1979 album Take Me Home. "Wasn't It Good" was officially released in the United States, but in places such as the United Kingdom and Canada the song was only released a promo. The song did enter the Billboard Hot 100, however it was not as successful as its predecessor. The song became a minor hit, peaking at number forty-nine.
The title track "Take Me Home" had previously been released to clubs and managed to peak in at number two on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart; however, "Wasn't It Good" was never released as a club single. Remixes do exist for this song, some were released on the 12" single and one remix can be found of various compilations released in the 1990s.
Although "Wasn't It Good" and "It's Too Late to Love Me Now" were released as official singles from the album Take Me Home, neither one has a music video; instead, a music video was made for the titular track and another song from the album, "Love and Pain" which were taped from the highly rated 1979 TV special Cher... and Other Fantasies.
"Wasn't It Good" is a song by Tina Arena from her 1994 album Don't Ask. Arena co-wrote the song along with Heather Field and Robert Parde, and it was produced by David Tyson. The song peaked at number #11 in Australia and received four nominations at the prestigious ARIA Awards in 1996. Upon release as a single, the title was rendered with an ellipsis ("Wasn't It Good...").
Arena has performed the song on most tours, including her 2004 Greatest Hits tour and 2012 Australian tour. It is track four on her 2004 Greatest Hits compilation.
"Wasn't It Good" was composed in the key of G, while the lyrics lament a past friendship that did not turn into a romantic relationship.
A five-track single was released through Columbia Records; it contained both the single edit and original album version of "Wasn't It Good", as well as live versions of three other tracks from Don't Ask.
Cher (/ˈʃɛər/; born Cherilyn Sarkisian on May 20, 1946) is an American singer and actress. Described as embodying female autonomy in a male-dominated industry, she is known for her distinctive contralto singing voice and for having worked in numerous areas of entertainment, as well as adopting a variety of styles and appearances during her five-decade-long career, which has led to her being nicknamed the Goddess of Pop.
Cher gained popularity in 1965 as one-half of the folk rock husband-wife duo Sonny & Cher after their song "I Got You Babe" reached number one on the American and British charts. She began her solo career simultaneously, releasing in 1966 her first million-seller song, "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)". She became a television personality in the 1970s with her shows The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, watched by over 30 million viewers weekly during its three-year run, and Cher. She emerged as a fashion trendsetter by wearing elaborate outfits on her television shows. While working on television, she established herself as a solo artist with the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles "Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves", "Half-Breed", and "Dark Lady". After her divorce from Sonny Bono in 1975, Cher launched a comeback in 1979 with the disco-oriented album Take Me Home and earned $300,000 a week for her 1980–82 residency show in Las Vegas.
Clueless is a 1995 American coming-of-age comedy film. It is loosely based on Jane Austen's 1815 novel Emma. It stars Alicia Silverstone (in the lead role), Stacey Dash, Paul Rudd, and Brittany Murphy. The film is set in Beverly Hills and was written and directed by Amy Heckerling and produced by Scott Rudin. It was released in the United States on July 21, 1995.
The film grossed $56 million in the United States and has developed a cult following.
The film spun off a television sitcom and a series of books.
Cherilyn "Cher" Horowitz is a good-natured but superficial girl who is attractive, popular, and extremely wealthy. A few months shy of her sixteenth birthday, she has risen to the top of the high school social scene. She lives in a Beverly Hills mansion with her father Mel, a ferocious $500-an-hour litigator; her mother died from a freak accident during a routine liposuction procedure when Cher was a baby. Cher's best friend is Dionne Davenport, who is also rich, pretty, and hip, and understands what it's like to be envied. Though Dionne has a long-term relationship with popular student Murray, Cher claims that it is a pointless endeavor.
Cher was a residency show by American entertainer Cher at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada. For the three-year engagement, Cher received $60 million. Performing at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, the first show occurred on May 6, 2008 and the last show was on February 5, 2011. Cher planned to perform 200 dates over a three-year period but due to eight cancellations only 192 shows were done. The show included 14 dancers and four aerialists, with a total of 17 costumes designed by Bob Mackie.
This setlist is representative for the opening concert on May 6, 2008. It doesn't represent all shows.

The original B side of the 12 inch to Cher's disco hit 'Take Me Home', this Bob Esty and Michelle Aller composition, was a minor hit on the pop charts when issued as a 7" single in 1979, reaching #49. There is no denying Cher's inimitable style vocally, and although she was something of a hesitant disco diva, there is no doubt some of her best work in her long career have been in the genre of dance music.
Title: Strong Enough Album: Believe Year: 1998

Do you believe in love after this? When Sonny Bono and Cher first met, he told her he didn't find her attractive. However, she was approaching him for a place to live so we have to wonder if he was trying to make her feel safer. Tune in to hear why the Dish Nation hosts think this may have been a case of reverse psychology.
