Don't Give Up On Us
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Don't Give Up On Us is a popular song by David Soul.
Riding high on the success of playing in the hit TV show Starsky and Hutch, David Soul returned to one of his early career choices as a singer. His debut, the Tony Macaulay written and produced Don't Give Up on Us was a worldwide smash, spending four weeks at #1 on the UK singles chart in January 1977 and a single week on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1977.
"Don't Give Up on Us" was rated #93 in VH1's 100 Greatest One-hit Wonders. Soul recorded a new version of the song in 2004, allegedly after being embarrassed when hearing it by chance in an elevator.
