Push is the debut album by British pop band Bros and was released on 28 March 1988.

The album reached No. 2 in the UK Albums Chart and spent 54 weeks in the Top 75. The album went 4× Platinum in the UK. In late 2013, a 25th Anniversary 3 CD remastered and expanded edition of the album was released on the Cherry Red record label.

In the UK Albums Chart, Push was kept off the number 1 spot by the compilation album Now 11 for two weeks, and then by Tracy Chapman's self-titled album for a week, although Push went on to sell more copies than both albums in 1988 and ranked as the 4th best-selling album for that year in the UK.
