About
Marie-Claire Cremers (born 17 September 1969), known professionally as Amber, is a Dutch-born singer-songwriter, record label owner and producer. She is perhaps best-known for her 1990s dance-pop singles, "This Is Your Night" (1996), "If You Could Read My Mind", and "Sexual (Li Da Di)" (1999). In December 2016, Billboard ranked her as the 34th most successful dance artist of all time; the magazine later ranked her at No. 7 on the list of most successful artists on the Dance Singles Sales chart during the 2000s.

In the 2020s Amber's career experienced a resurgence, as Tommy Boy Records–the label she was originally signed to (owned by Reservoir Media)–began releasing previously vaulted remixes of her songs to digital platforms worldwide. Beginning in 2022, six of nine re-releases have been Top 3 hits on the iTunes US Dance Chart, with four being chart-toppers: "Above the Clouds" (remix), "Love One Another" (Remix), "Colour of Love" (Remix) and "If You Could Read My Mind" (25th Anniversary Edition). The success of these releases, roughly thirty years since her career began, sparked a renewed interest in Amber's catalog amongst listeners; her albums This is Your Night (1996), Amber (1999) and Naked (2002) received a boost, and also charted on the Amazon Euro Pop and Dance Pop Bestsellers charts in 2023.
