"Don't Drop Bombs" is the second single from Liza Minnelli's album Results, produced by Pet Shop Boys and Julian Mendelsohn. "Don't Drop Bombs" was popular on the club circuit, but failed to make the Top 40 in the UK, peaking at No. 46. The single would only find its way the US club scene as an import and on the DJ subscription remix services Razormaid! and This Is Only a Test.

Music video

The video has similar references to other music videos and styles of the 1980s including Bananarama's "Venus", a touch of Michael Jackson towards the end, and even a reference to the Broadway Melody ballet from Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse. Parts of the video were shot in black and white.
