Higher Ground is the twenty-seventh studio album by American singer Barbra Streisand, her first in four years. The album was inspired by and dedicated to Virginia Clinton Kelley. It was released in North America on November 11, 1997, and a day earlier in Europe. The lead single, "Tell Him"—a duet with Celine Dion—was released on October 7, 1997, and become an international hit. Follow-up singles were "If I Could" and the title track. "If I Could" had been previously recorded by jazz singer Nancy Wilson as well as a medley of the inspirational standards "I Believe" and "You'll Never Walk Alone", later both issued as standalone recordings by the singer. The album also contains a cover of Bernard Ighner's "Everything Must Change", a song which Streisand had previously recorded in sessions for her 1974 album ButterFly but had remained unreleased. Higher Ground became Streisand's eighth number-one album in the US and has sold over five million copies worldwide.
