Soup for One is the soundtrack album to the movie Soup for One produced by American R&B band Chic, and released by Mirage Records in 1982. The album reached number 168 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and number 42 on the R&B chart. Besides three previously released tracks; Chic's "I Want Your Love" from their 1978 album C'est Chic, Sister Sledge's "Let's Go On Vacation" from their 1980 album Love Somebody Today and "Jump Jump" from Debbie Harry's 1981 album KooKoo, the album contains five songs specifically written and produced by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers for the movie. The work was produced as Chic was transitioning to using more digital technologies. The album features programmed drums along with analogue-played bass, guitar, piano and synth. Chic's title track stalled at number 80 on the US Pop chart, but was a Top 20 hit on the R&B singles chart, peaking at number 14, making it their best R&B chart entry since 1980s "Rebels Are We". "Why" by Carly Simon was only moderately successful on its initial release in the US, but the song turned out to be a surprise hit in Europe, where it reached number 10 on the UK singles chart.
