Shove It is the debut album by UK rock band the Cross released on 13 April 1988 by Virgin Records.

The group was founded and led by Roger Taylor, best known as the drummer for Queen, though he was the rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist for The Cross.

Taylor had originally started recording the album with the intention of releasing it as a solo artist.

Most of the album had been completed prior to recruiting the band members, with Taylor playing much of the instrumentation.

The album features Queen members Freddie Mercury (singing lead vocals on the English release of "Heaven for Everyone" and backing vocals on the US version),[1] Brian May (playing lead guitar on "Love Lies Bleeding")[2] and John Deacon (playing bass guitar on a few tracks)[citation needed], who collaborated with Taylor on the album.
