"Treat Me Like a Woman" is a song recorded by British singer Lisa Stansfield for her 2004 album, The Moment. It was written by Kara DioGuardi, George Hammond-Hagan, John Hammond-Hagan and Layla Manoochehri, and produced by Trevor Horn.[1]
The song received positive reviews from music critics who wrote that it finds Stansfield at her best and called it a "more feisty affair, full of texture and whit."[2][3] At first, "Treat Me Like a Woman" was set for release in the United Kingdom as a double A-side single with "Easier." ZTT Records set the release date for 4 October 2004 but the single was withdrawn at the last minute.[4] Later, "Treat Me Like a Woman" was selected as the lead single from The Moment in Europe and was issued on 14 February 2005.[5] It peaked at number thirty-six in Austria and forty-three in Germany.[6] The song reached number nine on the list of the most played British songs on German radio in 2005.[7] An accompanying music video, directed by Kevin Godley in 2004, was also released and included on the enhanced CDofThe Moment in 2005.
