Thanks to Lange’s work in 1991 on Bryan Adams’s Waking Up the Neighbours, including co-writing (Everything I Do) I Do It for You, the single was a huge hit. The song, written for the Kevin Costner film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, holds the record for the longest consecutive #1 UK chart single with 16 consecutive weeks at the top of the charts (7 July-26 October 1991). Lange also worked on You and I from Lady Gaga’s second studio album Born This Way.
