Released in mid-1986 it featured a hit single "Mad About You" which went to No. 3 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and No. 1 in Canada. ==Background and writing== Some of the songs on ''Belinda'' were written by Carlisle's former band-mate in the Go-Go's Charlotte Caffey while the rest were written by other songwriters. Carlisle has a single co-writing credit on one track ("Gotta Get to You"). "Band of Gold" was a hit song for Freda Payne in 1970. Payne provided background vocals on the dance mixes of Carlisle's version of this song, which would later appear as bonus tracks on the 2003 re-release of the album. "I Need a Disguise" was written by the team of Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg who co-wrote the song with Susanna Hoffs as it was originally intended for use by The Bangles.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Back to the 80s: Interview with songwriter Billy Steinberg )〕 Kelly and Steinberg also co-wrote another song for Carlisle called "Dancing in the City" which she sang and would later appear on the soundtrack for the 1987 movie ''Burglar''. "Stuff and Nonsense" is a cover of Tim Finn's song originally performed by his band Split Enz on their 1979 album ''Frenzy''. The song "Shot In the Dark" was used as part of the ''Out of Bounds'' soundtrack. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Belinda (Belinda Carlisle album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
