Lost in Paradise is the 4th album by German band X-Perience. The album includes ten new tracks and three remakes of their greatest hits, "A Neverending Dream", "Circles of Love" and "Magic Fields". "Return to Paradise" was the first single, released in October 2006. The second single was "Personal Heaven", a duet with Midge Ure. With the last single "I Feel Like You", singer Claudia Uhle decided to leave the band.
Lost in Paradise was released after a break of six years since their previous album, Journey of Life. After touring and promoting the last album, Polydor/Universal released the promotional single "It's a Sin", a cover of the Pet Shop Boys song (2003). The band took some time off and Claudia released a solo-album under the name Angelzoom in 2005.
The album entered the German Album Charts on No. 78.
There exist plenty of demo and alternate versions of the album tracks. Many songs were edited and/or re-written during the three years of creating the album. Some of these versions were released on x-perience.de. For a limited time, the songs
were free downloads.
"Dream to Me" is the name of a demo version of I Feel Like You. The song Joining Together is based on the same melody as Million Miles. Joining Together was limited released as Image-song for Böllhoff, a provider of fastening, assembly and systems technology. Dragonfly is an unreleased song which was only played live during concerts 2003–2005.
In 2003, there were plans to include cover-versions of It's A Sin (originally by Pet Shop Boys) and Moonlight Shadow (originally by Mike Oldfield and Maggie Reilly) because they already played these songs live but this was scrapped.
