Walk on Water is the ninth studio album (their tenth and final overall) by the British band Katrina and the Waves, released in 1997 (see 1997 in music). The album includes the lead single "Love Shine a Light", the winning song of the Eurovision Song Contest 1997. It also became the band's highest charting UK single, reaching number 3. However, it was not released in the United States as a single.
The track "Eejay" contains a sample of the 1962 song "Something's Got a Hold on Me" by American singer Etta James, who is credited as a co-writer along with the song's other two writers.
