"Walk on Air" is a song by British band T'Pau, released in 1991 as the second single from their third studio album The Promise.[2] It was written by Carol Decker and Ron Rogers, and produced by Andy Richards.[1] "Walk on Air" reached No. 62 in the UK and remained in the charts for two weeks.[3]

A music video was filmed to promote the single.[4] The 7" single's B-side, a live version of "Hold on to Love", was exclusive to the single and described as a previously unreleased alternate "unplugged"-style recording of the track from The Promise.[5] The 12" and CD formats featured the additional track "Dirty Town", a non-LP song that would re-appear as B-side to the band's next single "Soul Destruction".[6]
