Nude is the fourth studio album by British pop group Dead or Alive, released in Japan on December 18th, 1988 and in Europe and America in July 1989 on Epic Records.

[6] Nude marked the first Dead or Alive release which was solely produced by core members Pete Burns and Steve Coy, as during the album's production, Tim Lever and Mike Percy were fired from the band.

While the album was not as commercially successful in the band's native United Kingdom as their previous offerings, the album peaked within the top 10 in Japan, charted for 18 weeks,[7] and produced the band's biggest hit single in the territory, Turn Around and Count 2 Ten, which peaked atop the Oricon Singles Chart.

I discussed it with Steve, and he and I decided that we didn't want them working half-heartedly on an album that we knew had to be the very best we could make, so we fired them on the spot, and told them to go concentrate on giving 100% to their new career as producers.

Reviewing the album for Melody Maker (issue dated August 5th, 1989), Steve Sutherland concluded the album's lyrical content was "rife with confrontations, accusations, proclamations, anything that keeps Burns centre-stage, preening himself through roles like a camp Olivier," whilst noting that, "stylistically, Nude [hadn't] moved much anywhere from the exhilarating hi-NRG of Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know."
