The follow-up singles: “Roses Ain’t Red” (which peaked at #59) and “Wishful Drinking” (which peaked at #83) were moderately successful on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart.
In 1981, Diane released the single, “Play Something We Could Love To” which peaked at #35 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart, staying on the chart for 10 weeks, making it her only highest charting single to date.
In 1982, she released the single, “Something to Love for Again” which peaked at #85 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart, staying on the chart for 3 weeks. The follow-up single, “Let’s Get Crazy Again” peaked at #76 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart, staying on the chart for 4 weeks.

Lea Roberts (born Leatha Roberta Hicks on April 15, 1946 in Dayton, Ohio) is an R&B music singer from the ’70s.
In 1969, she released her debut single, “Prove It” on the Minit record label which peaked at #39 on Billboard’s Best Selling Soul Singles chart, staying on the chart for 4 weeks.
In 1973, Lea released her debut studio album, “Excuse Me, I Want to Talk to You” on the United Artists Records label. The only charting single from the album, “(If You Don’t Want My Love) Give It Back” peaked at #94 on Billboard’s Best Selling Soul Singles chart, staying on the chart for only 2 weeks.
In 1974, Lea released a cover version of Neil Sedaka’s 1974 song, “Laughter in the Rain” which peaked at #69 on Billboard’s Hot Soul Singles chart, staying on the chart for 6 weeks. It also peaked at #9 on Billboard’s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, staying on the chart for a week.
A year later, she released her sophomore album, “Lady Lea”. Her last charting single, a cover version of Free’s 1970 song, “All Right Now” peaked at #92 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #54 on Billboard’s Hot Soul Singles chart, staying on the chart for 6 weeks.
Afterwards, nothing much was heard from Lea until 1982 when she released her third and last studio album to date, “My Silent Place” on the Skies Unlimited Records label. Since then, it seems as if she has faded into obscurity; it’s unknown what she’s currently up to.
