Laura Branigan is the sixth album by singer Laura Branigan, released in 1990 (see 1990 in music).

This album scored top AC hit for Branigan with its second single, "Never In A Million Years." The album also brought the singer back to the tops of the Hi-NRG charts and gay dancefloors with its first single, "Moonlight On Water," and a trendy update of Vicki Sue Robinson's disco-era "Turn The Beat Around." The latter was the first of many songs on which Branigan added producing to her list of credits.
