Australian singer-songwriter Tina Arena has released thirteen studio albums, four live albums, four compilations, fifty-two singles and forty-three music videos.
Arena began her career in 1976 at the age of eight, singing live on Australia's variety television show, Young Talent Time. After dropping out of the spotlight for several years, she returned in 1990 where she released her debut album Strong as Steel through EMI, which included the hit single "I Need Your Body". She was not comfortable with the image with which she was being portrayed so she went to find another record deal.
She found a record deal with the record label Columbia Records. Her second album, Don't Ask, was then created with producer David Tyson. It became her highest-selling album with two million copies sold worldwide.
She has sold over 10 million records worldwide to date.[1] In France, she has sold over 2.2 million singles and 1.3 million albums.[2] In Australia, she has sold 1.2 million certified albums and half a million singles.[3]
