Tina Arena announces first new album in eight years: ‘I found solace in music during lockdown’
msn.comTina Arena has announced her first new album in eight years. The 55-year-old singer – born Filippina Lydia Arena – has titled the record, which will be her seventh entirely in English, ‘Love Saves’, and said it was inspired by lockdown.

There is also a French language version of ‘Dancing on Thin Ice’, with a teaser of the English language version to come. Tina earlier this year urged artists to inspire political action instead of simply making political statements during an emotional speech at the 2023 Shure Rolling Stone Australia Awards.
