In the early 1990s she reached the top 10 with the hit single "Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough," a duet with Don Henley of Eagles.

[citation needed] She guest-appeared on the Hooters 1985 album Nervous Night on the song "Where Do the Children Go" as an accompanying vocalist.

It contained her version of the Tom Waits song "Downtown Train" (which Rod Stewart would make a hit three years later) and the title track "Never Enough," which was co-written with members of the Hooters and based on a song of the same title that Hooters members Eric Bazilian and Rob Hyman had written for their earlier band, Baby Grand.

Smyth had previously recorded with Henley as a backing singer on several songs on his albums Building the Perfect Beast and The End of the Innocence.

Smyth subsequently co-wrote the 1994 song "Look What Love Has Done," nominated for a Grammy and an Academy Award after its inclusion in the soundtrack to the feature film Junior.

[3]) In 1999, Smyth sang lead vocals on a cover of "Ode To Billie Joe" (the 1967 Bobbie Gentry hit) on the album Smokin' Section by Tom Scott & The L.A. Express.

[5] In 2004, VH1 recruited Smyth and the surviving members of Scandal for a Bands Reunited episode, resulting in a small reunion tour of concerts on the East Coast of the United States in 2005.

The compilation contained three unreleased tracks from the 1982 recording sessions ("Grow So Wise", "If You Love Me", "I'm Here Tonight") as well as "All My Life," previously available on the flip side of "Goodbye to You".

In July 2008, Billboard reported the upcoming release of new music by the band[6] (featuring original members Keith Mack and Benjy King).
