Q

Mike & The Mechanics is the fifth studio album by Mike + The Mechanics, released in 1999. To avoid confusion with the band's 1985 debut album Mike + The Mechanics, it is often referred to as M6, which is written on the album cover, this being the band's sixth album counting the Hits compilation. It includes the top 40 hit "Now That You've Gone".

This was the last studio album with Paul Young, who died the year after its release; the group did not release another album until Rewired in 2004.

The album was not officially released in North America and is only available as an import there. However, the band's former US label Atlantic Records is still thanked in the liner notes.
