Non-Stop is the second solo album by Erasure member Andy Bell, released on 7 June 2010 on Mute Records. The album was co-written and co-produced by Bell and veteran producer Pascal Gabriel (S'Express, Debbie Harry, Kylie Minogue, Dannii Minogue, Ladyhawke, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Little Boots). Also included is a collaboration with Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell.
Bell originally went into the studio with Stephen Hague, with whom he had worked with Erasure. The sessions were scrapped however, when Daniel Miller, head of Bell's label Mute, said the songs sounded "too much like Erasure". Recording sessions then started over in France with Belgian producer Pascal Gabriel.
The track "DHDQ" (which stands for "Debbie Harry Drag Queen") is a tribute to Debbie Harry. "I love Madonna and Annie Lennox and Sinéad O'Connor but there's no one like her," Bell has stated. "I was on the True Colors Tour with Debbie and she’s lovely ... She loves the drag queens as well, in New York. To me, nobody's ever copied her because they can't, she’s the queen of all of them."
