In 2003, she scored her biggest hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #96, when her single "No One's Gonna Change You" crossed over from the dance charts.[3] In 2004 when "If I Close My Eyes" went to number 2 on Billboard's Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, she garnered her biggest dance hit and in 2005 scored another top 5 on the same chart with "Forgive".[4] All 3 tracks were from her third album overall, but first under her new name Reina "This Is Reina".
