It was released in January 1986 as the lead from their debut album, The Thin Red Line . The song reached number - one in Canada and number 2 in the United States . The song features backing vocals by rock singer Bryan Adams . </P> <P> In 1985, Glass Tiger chose Jim Vallance to produce the band's debut album . At the time, Vallance was primarily known as a songwriter, having written most frequently (and successfully) with Bryan Adams . He also had some previous production experience, having produced one album apiece by Adams, Doug and the Slugs and CANO in the early 1980s . The band's lead vocalist Alan Frew recalled: "It worked out great because we were all at the same stage of development . He didn't change the sound of the band at all . He let us experiment but wasn't afraid to get heavy - handed when he had to ." Vallance composed "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" with the band, while Adams provided backing vocals . Frew - "On the very first day that we met Jim Vallance, he picked us up at the airport and to break the ice asked us what we were listening to . One was Tears For Fears . We went to his house and drank tea and listened to some tunes .' Everybody Wants to Rule the World' came on and we really liked the shuffle beat . So we went into the studio and based on this shuffle beat, we wrote' Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)' . First day, first song ." </P>
