Do or die - Grace Jones

'Do or die' was the first and in most parts of the world the only single release from Jones' Fame, her second disco album. On Fame it made up the first part of the A-side non-stop medley 'Do or die /Pride / Fame'. The 7" single featured a heavily edited version (3:22) with the French-language non-album track 'Comme un oiseau qui s'envole' as the B-side, included as a bonus track on the Canadian edition of the Fame album. 

'Do or die' reached number 13 in the Spanish chart but only reached dance charts in the USA and Canada. Eartha Kitt recorded a cover of the song for her 1989 album I'm Still Here

My collection: 7" single no. 7141
Found: Record fair, Den Bosch, 13 April 2024
