Released on 12 September 1989, "Results" was the ninth studio album by Liza Minnelli, produced by the Pet Shop Boys and Julian Mendelsohn, the album was a huge success in the UK reaching No. 6 on the Album Chart, also spwaned four singles "Losing My Mind", "Don't Drop Bombs", "So Sorry, I Said", & "Love Pains".
Back in 1988, Liza Minnelli, had expressed an interest in doing a pop album, completely in contrast with her normal output when she joined Epic Records. So Tom Watkins, the manager of the Pet Shop Boys was in the US offices at Epic around this time, promoting his new band Bros and heard that Minnelli had just been signed by Epic and suggested that The Pet Shop Boys could work with her on the album.
And that was it, Minelli had heard their song "Rent" and loved it and was thrilled to hear that they might be interested to work with her. Tennant was already a fan of Minnelli and set about writing some songs
specifically for her. In March 1989, Minnelli was on tour in London and
recorded the vocals for the album during the day. She was surprised on
arriving at the studios to learn that the musical backing had already
been recorded, a process she was unfamiliar with. She found working with
the duo to be great fun but also challenging, saying that Tennant did
not compromise and would push her vocally to ranges lower than she was
used to. In general, she was impressed with the duo's work
lyrically, and was very pleased with the finished album.
