"Gold" is a song written and recorded by John Stewart in 1979. It was the lead single and biggest hit among three Top 40 singles released from his LP, Bombs Away Dream Babies. The song was Stewart's first US Top 40 hit, as well as his first chart single in a decade (since "Armstrong" which peaked at #74 in 1969). Stevie Nicks is featured on backing vocals.

"Gold" became a top-five hit in the United States, Canada and Australia. It also charted in the UK and New Zealand although not as high.
