Belinda Carlisle: I Get Weak Top 40 Breaker Clip - Top Of The Pops - March 3, 1988 (My "Stereo Studio Sound" Re-Edit)

"I Get Weak" is a song by American singer Belinda Carlisle from her second studio album, Heaven on Earth (1987). Written by Diane Warren and produced by Rick Nowels, the song was released as the second single from Heaven on Earth in January 1988. "I Get Weak" reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, number four on Canada's RPM 100 Singles chart, and number 10 on the UK Singles Chart.

After completing the song, songwriter Diane Warren "initially: had Stevie Nicks in mind – a suggestion she made to producer Rick Nowels, who felt it would be a better fit for Carlisle.

The accompanying music video for the song features a combination of color and black-and-white shots in the same frames. It was directed by actress Diane Keaton (who also directed her previous "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" video), and featured model and actor Tony Ward, who later appeared in Madonna's video for "Justify My Love".
