''Walk on Fire'' is the second studio album from Belfast New Wave/rock band Silent Running, released in 1987. ==Background== After the commercial failure of the band's 1984 debut album ''Shades of Liberty'' and its three singles, the band were to record their second album for EMI Records. However, the 1985 single "No Faith is Blind" failed to become a commercial success.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Official Charts Company - No Faith Is Blind by Silent Running Search )〕 Despite massive airplay and appearances on television shows across the musical spectrum (including 'Cheggar's Plays Pop') the single resulted in the band being dropped by EMI. In a major coup the band were picked up by Atlantic Records, becoming the first British or Irish act to join the roster of this legendary American record label. A total of two singles were released from the album; "Sanctuary" and "Heartland", which both failed to make enough impact to chart, causing the band to not make the elusive breakthrough that was hoped. "Sanctuary" was released in both the UK and America. The artwork for the single used the main artwork for the album.〔 "Heartland" was released during 1988 in the UK only although it was also released as an American promotional single. The single featured non-related artwork to the album.〔 Following the commercial failure of the album, the band would work on their next album for Atlantic Records, the 1989 album ''Deep''. 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「Walk on Fire (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
