“(I Just) Died in Your Arms” is a power ballad written by Nick Van Eede and introduced by his band, Cutting Crew, in 1986. It was their biggest hit, peaking at #1 in the United States, Canada and Norway, and reaching the top five in the UK, South Africa, Sweden and Switzerland.

The song is so popular that the melody is sampled in Mika’s “Relax, Take It Easy” and Rihanna referenced the line in her song SOS : “Take me on, I could just die up in your arms tonight.”
