"Sweet Surrender" was the first single from Wet Wet Wet's third studio album, Holding Back the River. It was released on 18 September 1989, and reached #6 on the UK singles chart. The single fared extremely well in Ireland, topping the charts for two weeks, and giving the band their second consecutive Irish number one. In Australia, "Sweet Surrender" peaked at #7 on the ARIA singles chart in May 1990, and was certified gold.

Marti Pellow recorded his own version of the song for inclusion on his 2002 album Marti Pellow Sings the Hits of Wet Wet Wet & Smile. For that version, he changed the lyric from Hey, little fella, now your show's together to Hey, little fella, now your shit's together.

The music video features the band performing in a dark blue background with a smiling Marti Pellow singing the song and various women dressed in red Arabian clothing swimming in midair.
