Enough Is Enough (Billy Squier album) explained
Enough Is Enough is the fifth studio album by Billy Squier, released on September 27, 1986. It was the first album to be released under his second seven-year Capitol Records recording contract.
The disc peaked at #61 on the Billboard album chart[2] and included the minor hit "Love Is the Hero" which featured Freddie Mercury on backing vocals. Despite mostly positive critical reception, Enough Is Enough was a commercial disappointment and sold about 300,000 copies in the United States, making it his first album since 1980's The Tale of the Tape to not reach platinum status.
