She began working with former Trevor Horn protege Stephen Lipson, beginning with Lennox's 1992 solo debut album, Diva, was a commercial and critical success, charting #1 in UK, #6 in Germany, and #23 in the U.S. Lennox's profile was boosted by Diva's singles, which included Why and Walking on Broken Glass), and Love Song for a Vampire, a soundtrack cut for Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 movie Bram Stoker's Dracula. The B-side of her single Precious was a self-penned song called Step by Step. Whitney Houston later covered Step by Step for the soundtrack of the film The Preacher's Wife. Houston's cover was a hit in its own right. Stephen Lipson consistently has been involved in Lennox's solo offerings, providing a sonic unity within all her solo recordings.
