It was released in 1982 and featured the hit singles "Hi Fidelity" and "Starmaker". The album became a big success, notably so in the UK where it reached No.1 in the album charts and remained on top for 12 weeks.[2] OverviewThe US TV series Fame became an instant success all over the world, but most prominently in the UK and Ireland where the first single release "Hi Fidelity" became a No.5 and No.3 hit respectively.[3][3] Simultaneously, this album was released in July 1982 and very quickly topped the albums chart, reaching No.1 for 12 weeks.[4] Soon after, a second single "Starmaker" was released and became even bigger, peaking at No.3 in the UK and No.1 in Ireland. The album ended the year as the second-best selling album of 1982, beaten only by Barbra Streisand's Love Songs album. It went on to remain in the charts for 46 weeks and sold over a million copies - the biggest-selling album ever released by BBC Records (who had licensed the songs from RCA).[5] The album was also a top 30 hit in Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands and New Zealand, but only managed a #146 peak in the US.[5] A third single was released in the Netherlands, "Life is a Celebration". In the UK, a follow-up album The Kids from "Fame" Again was released just three months later, which reached No.2.[4] The album was released on Compact disc in 2000. Track listingSide one
