"D-A-N-C-E" - Night Force-- comes to mind.
"Lost inside adorable illusion...."
Didn't Stephanie Mills do a song titled "D-A-N-C-I-N"?
And more recently, there was "G.L.A.D." by Kim Appleby and "R.S.V.P." by Jason Donovan--the latter from producers SAW, a.k.a. Stock Aitken Waterman.
OK?

Yes, that Stephanie Mills song exists. See my Top 25 post!
I also volunteer:
I.O.U. - Freeeze, with Arthur Baker, who later did another version on his "Give into the rhythm" album.
SOS - ABC, NOT the same as:
SOS - ABBA (again two abbreviations! does that mean I get double points?)
BYOB - Can't remember the band...
And does this one count:
I want 2B the 1 for U - The Whispers (from "More of the night").
And how about anything by U2, SOS Band, or THP Orchestra? Didn't the Three Degrees release an album called 3D?
