Shine is the fourth studio album by Swedish singer Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and her second international solo album as Frida. Released in September 1984, it marks her last studio album in the English language to date. Although it was never officially released in the United States, the album was made available in Canada by WEA.
The album has been re-released several times over the years, most notably in a digitally remastered version in 2005, which included bonus tracks. Shine, along with its accompanying promotional videos and clips, is also featured in the collection Frida – 4xCD 1xDVD.
In terms of commercial success, Shine sold a total of 225,000 copies worldwide, with 65,000 of those sales occurring in Sweden.[3] Despite its limited release, the album remains a significant part of Frida's solo discography.
