I Don't Wanna Get Hurt

"I Don't Wanna Get Hurt" is the second single from the album Another Place and Time by Donna Summer. The song was released on May 15, 1989. The whole album was written and produced by British team Stock Aitken & Waterman (SAW) and was mainly in the style of their "hit factory" sound. This song was remixed for its release as a single, and in the UK became the Top 10[1] follow-up to its predecessor, the hit "This Time I Know It's for Real." SAW gained most of their success in Europe and much of their material was never aimed at the U.S. market, so this single was never released there.
