Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox song "I Get Weak" is a song by American singer Belinda Carlisle from her second studio album, Heaven on Earth (1987). Written by Diane Warren and produced by Rick Nowels, the song was released as the second single from Heaven on Earth in January 1988. "I Get Weak" reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, number four on Canada's RPM 100 Singles chart, and number 10 on the UK Singles Chart.

Background

After completing the song, songwriter Diane Warren "initially had Stevie Nicks in mind – a suggestion she made to producer Rick Nowels, who felt it would be a better fit for Carlisle."

Critical reception

Jerry Smith of Music Week called "I Get Weak" a "smooth and rather sanitised track" which "will need plenty of support if it's to make much impression".

Music video

The accompanying music video for the song features a combination of color and black-and-white shots in the same frames. It was directed by actress Diane Keaton (who also directed her previous "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" video), and featured model and actor Tony Ward, who later appeared in Madonna's video for "Justify My Love".
