Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
"Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" is a song co-written by Albert Hammond and Diane Warren,〔''Nothing's gonna stop us now and the hit songs of Diane Warren'' MUSIC SCORE.D WARREN – 1991〕 recorded by the American rock band Starship. It is a duet featuring Starship vocalists Mickey Thomas and Grace Slick. Featured as the theme to the romantic comedy film ''Mannequin'',〔theguardian, 28 March 2014, Dave Eggers article, ()〕 it hit No. 1 in the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 on April 4, 1987 and reached No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart for four weeks the following month and became the UK's 2nd biggest selling single of 1987. At the time, it made Grace Slick (aged 47) the oldest woman to have a number one single in the United States〔Gotta revolution, 1987: Grace slick, Paul Kantner, and "volunteers of America" W Glausser – ''Popular Music & Society'', 1988 – Taylor & Francis〕 though the record was later broken by Cher's "Believe" in 1999 (aged 52).
The song also received an Academy Award nomination for "Best Original Song" at the 60th Academy Awards. In addition to appearing on the ''Mannequin'' soundtrack, the song was also released on Starship's album ''No Protection'' in July 1987.
==Background and writing==
In a radio interview, Albert Hammond said that the idea for the song came from his impending marriage to his live-in girlfriend of seven years, after his divorce from his previous wife was finalized. He had said to Diane Warren, "It's almost like they've stopped me from marrying this woman for seven years, and they haven't succeeded. They're not gonna stop me doing it."〔() 〕 The song in recent years has been played as a "backing song" on the show ''The X Factor'' when reviewing some of acts back to the viewers. The song has been considered "feel good" propelled by a strong synthesizer beat.〔''The when, where, and who of pop lyrics: the listener's prerogative''. T Murphey.
