Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings
Hold Me is the fourth studio album by American singer Laura Branigan, released on July 15, 1985, by Atlantic Records.[1] The album peaked at number 71 on the US Billboard 200, though it fared better internationally, reaching the top 10 in Sweden and Switzerland, and the top 15 in Norway.
The album's lead single, "Spanish Eddie", earned Branigan her sixth top-40 entry in two and a half years, peaking at number 40 on the Billboard Hot 100,[2] and was moderately successful outside the United States.[3] Subsequent singles "Hold Me" and "I Found Someone" failed to make an impact, peaking at numbers 82 and 90 on the Billboard Hot 100, respectively. Nevertheless, "Hold Me" reached number 39 on BillboardШаблон:'s Hot Dance/Disco Club Play chart,[4] while "I Found Someone" reached number 25 on the Hot Adult Contemporary chart.[5]
The track "When the Heat Hits the Streets" was used in a television advertising campaign for the Chrysler Laser, with Chrysler serving as a sponsor for Branigan's 1985–1986 Hold Me tour (a Chrysler Laser was prominently displayed in the "Spanish Eddie" music video).
According to Branigan, she said "the album is such a growth from my other albums. I really feel it’s the direction I want to go. My voice is definitely stronger and the material is just incredible. I honestly don't feel there are any fillers."[6]
