  • Don’t give up on us is de debuutsingle van David Soul. Het is afkomstig van zijn titelloze debuutalbum. Muziekproducent Tony Macaulay had al een hele rij hits op zijn naam staan, toen hij David Soul met dit liefdesliedje mocht bijstaan bij zijn hernieuwde stappen in de muziekwereld. Soul was voornamelijk bekend als Hutch uit Starsky and Hutch. De zangcarrière verliep (zeker in Engeland met vier top 10-hits) kort en hevig; in 1978 was zij alweer grotendeels voorbij; Soul werd overspannen, kreeg een hernia en zijn relatie met actrice liep ten einde. (Dat is de prijs die je voor succes moet betalen, aldus Soul.) Het lied kwam terug in de film Starsky & Hutch gezongen door Owen Wilson. Het lied is ook opgenomen door artiesten als Johnny Mathis, The Nolan Sisters en Donny Osmond. (nl)
