Spellbound is the name of the pop album released by Paula Abdul released in May 1991. The album was an international success and spawned major radio hits with the singles "Rush Rush", "The Promise of a New Day", "Blowing Kisses in the Wind", "Vibeology" and "Will You Marry Me?". Though it was not as successful as Abdul's previous studio album, Forever Your Girl, the album was very successful in the United States, achieving triple platinum sales there (and 12 million++ worldwide) and peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200. It became Abdul's second and last album to hit #1 on the chart.
Music videos were produced for each of the singles, and all received heavy airplay on MTV. "Rush, Rush", featuring Keanu Reeves — at that time a superstar — paid homage to the classic film Rebel Without A Cause. Choreography for the ballad "Blowing Kisses in the Wind" included mid-air ballet. "Will You Marry Me?" featured several images of Paula singing a marriage proposal.
A special limited edition version of the album was released in the USA. It came in an outer cardboard box and inside was a giant oversized gold colored plastic compact, emulative of the one Abdul is seen looking into in the album's artwork. Inside is a giant powder puff and an alternate version of the CD booklet shaped in a circle.
Some tracks are mixed using Q-Sound.
