"Divine Emotions" is a 1988 single by Narada Michael Walden, from the album Divine Emotion. A successful producer, Walden billed himself as Narada for his later music releases. After producing acts like Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston in the mid-1980s, Walden released "Divine Emotions," in 1988. The single went to number one on the Billboard dance club play chart for one week.[1] Although the single did not chart on the Hot 100, it peaked at number twenty-one on the soul singles chart.[2] Overseas, "Divine Emotions", was a top-ten hit in the UK, peaking at number 8, in the Netherlands, Luxembourg and the Flanders region of Belgium.
