Into the Skyline is the second studio album by English dance artist Cathy Dennis, released in September 1992 in North America, and January 1993 in the UK. Written with an aim toward the U.S. market, the album features the singles "You Lied to Me", "Irresistible", "Moments of Love," "Falling", and "Why" – the latter was credited to D Mob with Cathy Dennis. The album peaked at #8 in the UK Albums Chart,[2] whilst in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, "You Lied to Me" was a Top 40 hit,[3] and "Irresistible" made the Adult Contemporary Top Ten;[4] however, the album descended the chart rapidly.

Dennis experienced a brief peak of fame, making a cameo in Beverly Hills, 90210 singing the song "Moments of Love" (a minor U.S. Adult Contemporary chart hit), "Why" (in the episode, without D Mob) and "Touch Me (All Night Long)", a single from her previous album, Move to This. The Japanese edition of Into the Skyline had a second release, which was called Into the Skyline +1, and featured three extra tracks: "Nothing Moves Me", a previous B-side, and "It's My Style" were released as singles.
