Wrap Your Arms Around Me is a 1983 album by Agnetha Fältskog. This was the first of her 3 1980s post ABBA solo albums and was produced by Mike Chapman. "The Heat is On" was her best known 1980s solo single hit and other European hit singles from this album were "Can't Shake Loose" (#29 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S., and one of only two post-ABBA singles by Agnetha to chart in America) & "Shame". The track "Man" was the only song on the album written by Agnetha herself in contrast to her pre-Abba 1960s recordings which were mainly self-penned.
