Self Control is the third studio album by American singer Laura Branigan.

Her collections, always uneven in terms of material, benefit mostly from her stellar voice, and this is no exception. The Lucky One" and "Heart" start slow and build to a crescendo, perfectly showcasing her range without being obvious.

American singer Laura Branigan covered Self Control in 1984. It was released as the lead single from her third studio album of the same name, released the same year. Branigan’s first major hit had also been co-written by Bigazzi: Gloria (1982) was an English cover of the 1979 original Italian song recorded by Umberto Tozzi.
