"Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now" is a pop song performed by British singer Samantha Fox and written and produced by Mike Stock, Matt Aitken, and Pete Waterman. It was released as the first single from Samantha’s eponymous second album, Samantha Fox, in the spring of 1987.

The single became Samantha's third and final top ten single in the United Kingdom, peaking at #8 in June.[2] In the United States, the single was released in the fall of 1987 and reached only #80 that October.[3] It was a Top 10 hit in Continental Europe. It also reached #22 in Australia.

In 2009, Fox re-recorded the song with British producers Pete Hammond, Nathan Thomas, and Carl M Cox. It was supposed to feature on her 2009 "Greatest Hits" album, but as yet the track remains unreleased. The first evidence of its existence was a short clip on the website, www.prolificmedia.co.uk. The 2009 version has subsequently been discovered in its entirety at www.soundcloud.com.

In 2010 the song was covered by German television celebrity Daniela Katzenberger.

Music video

The music video was filmed in Marbella, Spain. Samantha Fox is shown using several forms of locomotion including a Sunseeker XPS 34 motorboat, a horse, an Alfa Romeo Spider, a Cessna Skymaster, and a BMX bike.[4]
