"It's a Miracle" is the fifth and final single from Culture Club's 1983 Colour by Numbers album. The song became the group's sixth Top 5 hit on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number 4[1]. It reached number 13 on the Hot 100[citation needed], and hit the Top 5 in Canada [2].

The B-Side of the 7 inches is a live rendition of Love Twist, a track from their first album. It was recorded in December 1983. An additional live track from the same show was available on the 12 inches, Melting Pot, a cover of the group Blue Mink.

Trivia : The song was first called It's America, relating to Culture Club's first trip to USA. It was later changed.
