Her biggest success was "Come into My Life," although it was her only top-10 record on the R&B chart. Both "All and All" and her remake of "Love Makes a Woman" with Jimmy Castor were chart entries, but Sims did not garner enough attention to break out beyond the dance market.[1] Sims' debut album, Come into My Life, reached #22 in the US R&B album chart. All songs were written by Sims except for "Love Makes a Woman".
In 1994, Sims released the single "Who's Crying Now" on Warlock Records, which absorbed her Sleeping Bag Records contract. She continued to tour internationally and make club appearances.
She made her return in 2006 with the single "What The World Needs Now is Love," from her album A New Beginning, which was released on Vessel Entertainment, after teaming up with record producersJunior Vasquezand Glen Frisica.
Her music can be heard on the soundtrack of the movieSpecies, and her songs were recorded or sampled byRandy Crawford, Angie Stone, and Snoop Dogg. Sims most recent release was "Wishing You Were Here" on her own imprint, August Rose Records. A new album, Back in Love Again, is to follow.[2]
In 2009, Come into My Life: the Very Best of Joyce Sims, a double-CD of her greatest hits and remixes was released, which included the original studio versions on the first disc and extended mixes on the second disc.
Her most famous song, "Come into my Life," was copied by the Indian film-music composition duo of Nadeem Shravan in the film Aashiqui with a track called "Dheere dheere meri Zindagi me aana," virtually stealing the lyrics as well
Come into my life, I got so much love to show you Come into my life, boy I adore you Come into my life, I got so much love to show you Come into my life, boy I adore you Come into my life, I'll open the door If you come into my life, boy I adore you And I will treat you right And I'll show you sweet mellow days that you want and need For you hold the keys to my life Good times will flow if you make our love strong and tight Together as one, not two we'll shine like diamond ice, uh And I'll show you sweet mellow days that you want and need Because I can brighten up your days And when you're feeling bad I'll put a smile on your face Can you tell me what price must I pay To make you see things my way Don't wait, don't wait, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh [Chorus] For you hold the keys to my life Good times will flow if you make our love strong and tight Together as one, not two we'll shine like diamond ice, uh And I'll show you sweet mellow days that you want and need Because I can brighten up your days And when you're feeling bad I'll put a smile on your face, hey hey Can you tell me what price must I pay To make you see things my way Don't wait, don't wait Come to my life, coming down for me [Repeat Chorus Until End]
