Youthquake

Youthquake is the second studio album by the English pop band Dead or Alive, released on 13 May 1985 by Epic Records. The album was their commercial breakthrough in Europe and the United States, due to its lead single "You Spin Me Round", which was a No. 1 hit on the UK singles chart and a Top 20 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100. Additional single releases from the album included "Lover Come Back to Me", "In Too Deep" and "My Heart Goes Bang". This was Dead or Alive's first collaboration with the Stock Aitken Waterman production team. The recording was marked by tension and clashes between band and producers, which audio engineer Phil Harding alleges almost escalated to violence. Youthquake was re-released in the UK on compact disc in 1994, with the two bonus tracks that were previously included on the original CD and cassette versions of the album. The album peaked at No. 9 on the UK Albums Chart and was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry for sales of over 100,000 copies. It also peaked at No. 31 on the US Billboard 200 and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for sales over 500,000.
