Shine is the sixth studio album by the British pop group Five Star. The album was released in 1991 in the US only, where sales were poor. The album was made available as an import in the UK, though the album's title track was released as a single in the UK but failed to chart. A special edition of the album was released in the UK in 2013 by Cherry Pop Records, featuring six additional mixes of the title track single.

Producers on the album included Ian Prince, Zac Harmon and Christopher Troy. The album was part-recorded at MJJ Studios in California, owned by Michael Jackson.

Initially, the tracks recorded for this album were to form the basis for lead singer Denise Pearson's first solo album (at this point she had changed the spelling from Deniece to Denise). However, the rest of the band later contributed to the album, thus making it a group effort.
