He found the top of the Hot 100 again with " Roll With It" (1988) from the album of the same name, with " Holding On" also charting highly the same year. His 1986 album Back in the High Life marked his career zenith, with hit singles including " Back in the High Life Again", " The Finer Things" and the US Billboard Hot 100 number one hit " Higher Love".
