Faith (H2O album)

Faith is the debut and only studio album by the Scottish pop band H<sub>2</sub>O. It was originally released in 1984 on the label RCA. The album was recorded over a period of five months between October 1983 and March 1984, in sessions that took place at Livingston Studios, in London. It features their bestselling singles, "I Dream to Sleep" and "Just Outside of Heaven", both of which preceded the album being released the year before.

In 2009, a digitally remastered CD of the album was released with six bonus tracks by Cherry Red.

Critical reception

Pemberton Roach of AllMusic gave the album two out of five stars and called the album "an obscure gem of 1980's New Romantic synth pop" adding that Faith "makes a strong bid for lost classic status."
