description: "Sharleen Eugene Spiteri is a Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist who has a contralto vocal range, best known as the lead singer of the rock band Texas, who rose to prominence in 1989 with the release of their debut single \"I Don't Want a Lover\". Their debut album, Southside (1989) was a commercial success, selling over two million copies. Follow up albums were less successful; however, the release of their fourth album White on Blonde (1997) returned the band to prominence, spawning the internationally successful singles \"Say What You Want\", \"Halo\", \"Black Eyed Boy\" and \"Put Your Arms Around Me\". Their commercial success continued during the late 1990s and into the early 2000s, with singles \"In Our Lifetime\", \"Summer Son\", \"In Demand\" and \"Inner Smile\". Following the release of their seventh album Red Book (2005), the band began a hiatus. In 2013, Texas's worldwide album sales were counted at 40 million records."
