Youthquake is the second studio album by the English pop band Dead or Alive, released on 3 May 1985 by Epic Records. The album was their commercial breakthrough in Europe and the United States, due to the lead single "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", which was a UK number-one hit and a top 20 hit in the United States. Additional single releases from the album included "Lover Come Back to Me", "In Too Deep" and "My Heart Goes Bang (Get Me to the Doctor)". This was Dead or Alive's first collaboration with the Stock Aitken Waterman production team. The Recording was marked by tension and clashes between band and producers, which engineer Phil Harding alleges almost escalated to violence. Youthquake was re-released in the UK on compact disc in 1994, with the two bonus tracks that were previously included on the original CD and cassette versions of the album. Recent US and Japanese reissues have reverted to the original vinyl track listing. The album peaked at No. 9 in the UK and was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales of over 100,000 copies. It also peaked at No. 31 in the US and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales over 500,000. In Canada, the album peaked at No. 8 and was certified platinum. The album cover was taken by Peruvian fashion and portrait photographer, Mario Testino.
