As Cher revealed two of her favorite songs that she wishes were bigger, her fans certainly comforted her with their heart-warming words. According to Today, “Song for the Lonely” was included on her 2001 album “Living Proof” before being released as a single the following year.

Her other single, "You Haven't Seen the Last of Me," was featured on the soundtrack for the 2010 Golden Globe-nominated movie "Blursque." Cher and fellow musicians such as Christina Aguilera, Stanley Tucci, and Kristen Bell starred in the movie.

Regardless of the songs not making it big time, her other songs became a great success, and The Guardian.com ranked her greatest 30 hits. According to the outlet, Cher has surfaced the zeitgeist for twenty-five years.

Among the songs was "Take It Like A Man," which was released in 2013; the pop icon reportedly out-gayed herself with this single. From 1989 was her "After All" song, which firmly entrenched in the moneyspinning late 80s world of soft-rock balladry.
