"Bridge to Your Heart" is a song by pop duo Wax from their second studio album ''American English'' (1987). In many European countries the song was released under the title "Building a Bridge to Your Heart". The song became the group's most popular single in their home country of the United Kingdom, reaching No. 12 on the UK Singles Chart〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Chart Stats - Wax )〕 and reaching the top ten in other European countries such as the Netherlands and Sweden. ==Background== The release of the duo's debut album ''Magnetic Heaven'' in 1986 spawned the single "Right Between the Eyes". The song became Wax's most successful song in the United States, reaching No. 43 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart,〔(Billboard.com - Artist Chart History - Wax UK )〕 the song was considered a commercial failure in the United Kingdom, only reaching No. 60 on the UK Singles Chart.〔 Several follow-up singles failed to chart. In March 1987, band members Andrew Gold and Graham Gouldman started writing and recording songs for the follow-up to ''Magnetic Heaven'', ''American English''. One of these songs was "Bridge to Your Heart". The song was later released as the album's second single in July 1987, on RCA Records. The song then debuted at No. 98 on the UK Singles Chart, and slowly rose to its peak position of No. 12 on the chart. The song instantly became their breakout hit, and the ''American English'' album became the duo's first and only album to chart in the UK, peaking at No. 59 on the UK Albums Chart.〔(Chart Stats - Wax - American English )〕 The song became their only successful hit in the UK; it was their only top 40 hit, making them a one-hit wonder there. Their only song after the release of "Bridge to Your Heart" to chart was "Anchors Aweigh", which barely scraped the top 100 of the UK Singles Chart, peaking at No. 95 on the chart. 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「Bridge to Your Heart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
