Hot Together is the title of the twelfth studio album by the Pointer Sisters released in October 1986 by RCA Records.
The eighth of the group's nine collaborations with producer Richard Perry, Hot Together represented a downturn in the Pointer Sisters' fortunes. The lead single, "Goldmine", charted well on Billboard's R&B and dance charts but only reached #33 on the Hot 100. A second single, the ballad "All I Know Is the Way I Feel", reached #93 on the Hot 100. A third release, "Mercury Rising", only managed an appearance on Billboard's R&B chart.
The album's title track is more well-known, having been included in the soundtrack for the Mel Brooks 1987 film Spaceballs[3][4] and the Richard Dreyfuss 1987 film Stakeout;[4] it was also used in advertisements for the 1987 NBA playoffs.[5] The song was prominently featured in the second trailer for the upcoming 2026 video game, Grand Theft Auto VI, leading to a 182,000% surge in streams on Spotify.[6][7]
Other songs of note include "Set Me Free" (co-written by "Neutron Dance" scribe Allee Willis and featured in the opening scene of Whoopi Goldberg's 1986 film Jumpin' Jack Flash) and "My Life" (co-written by actress/comedian Sandra Bernhard). The album was remastered and issued on CD, with bonus tracks, in 2011 by Big Break Records.
