Bitter Sweet is the second and final album by the English band King, produced by Richard James Burgess and released by CBS Records in 1985. The album peaked at number 16 in the UK Album Chart and was certified Gold by the BPI.
The first single from the album was "Alone without You" which reached the UK Top 10. Two further singles were taken from the album, "The Taste of Your Tears" (UK #11) and "Torture" (UK #23).
The cassette edition of the record featured a slightly different track listing, containing a slow reprise of the first single "Alone without You", and the 12" extended remix replacing the 7" version of "The Taste of Your Tears".
In September 2007, the album was remastered and re-released on CD by Cherry Red label with eight bonus tracks including remixes and B-Sides.
