Bridge of Spies is the debut album by British pop group T'Pau, released in September 1987. For its US release, Virgin Records renamed Bridge of Spies to simply T'Pau. The album was produced by Roy Thomas Baker

Their debut album, Bridge of Spies (simply called T'Pau in the USA), also reached number 1 and went quadruple platinum in the UK. The album produced a total of five hit singles including "Valentine", "Sex Talk" (a live recording of early flop single, "Intimate Strangers"), and "I Will Be with You". 1988 saw the release of their second album Rage, which peaked at No. 4 in the UK and reached platinum status there, but failed to come close to the level of success of the band's debut album the year before.

The "Bridge of Spies" is the Glienicke Bridge in Germany, which connects Potsdam with Berlin. During the Cold War, the Potsdam side was controlled by communist East Germany, and the Berlin side was part of West Germany, which was aligned with the United States and other NATO countries. Since it connected enemy territories, it was used for the exchange of spies and prisoners. In America, their first album was issued as T'Pau, but elsewhere this song was the title track. Released as a single, it failed to chart, although the album went on to sell over 4 million copies in the UK. In 2015, a movie called Bridge of Spies, its title also taken from the Glienicke Bridge, was released. This song was not a part of it, which displeased Carol Decker.
