"Can't Stop This Thing We Started" was the second single from Waking Up the Neighbours, Bryan Adams' sixth album, and A&M sent it out in September 1991. Adams wrote it with Robert John "Mutt" Lange, and it charges along like a man who has no intention of hitting the brakes. It went to number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent three weeks, not in a row, at the top of Canada's RPM 100 Hit Tracks chart.

At the 1992 Grammys it picked up two nominations, Best Rock Song and the solo Best Rock Performance award, and lost both. Years later it found an unlikely second job as the British Columbia Liberal Party's campaign theme in 2009.
