1981 studio album by Rod Stewart
Tonight I`m Yours is the eleventh studio album by Rod Stewart, released in 1981. It features hints of classic rock, pop and new wave. The album had three hit singles, with the title track "Tonight I`m Yours (Don`t Hurt Me)" (US Billboard No. 20, US Cash Box No. 15; Canada No. 2[4]), "Young Turks" (US No. 5), and "How Long" (US No. 49).
Leer másTonight I`m Yours saw Rod Stewart further adopting current musical trends, after some disco-influenced songs on Blondes Have More Fun and Foolish Behaviour, by adding elements of synth-pop and new wave to a couple of songs (the title track, and "Young Turks"), while mostly keeping to his rock traditions elsewhere. The album included three covers: "Tear It Up", "How Long", and "Just Like a Woman".
The song "Never Give Up on a Dream" was dedicated to Canadian athlete Terry Fox, who ran 3,339 miles with one prosthetic leg in the Marathon of Hope to raise money for cancer research. Fox succumbed to cancer in 1981, the year the album was released.
The music video for "Tonight I`m Yours" was shot by Australian film director, Russell Mulcahy.
