Candles is the fourth studio album by the British pop, funk, disco band Heatwave. Arranged, and primarily written by Rod Temperton, it was released on 21 November 1980 (1980-11-21) on the GTO record label in the United Kingdom, and the Epic record label (number 36873) in the United States. It was produced by lead singer Johnnie Wilder, Jr. and James Guthrie. It made number 71 on the Billboard LP and Tapes chart, dated 17 January 1981.
It was the last Heatwave album to be released on the GTO record label before it was wrapped up in late 1981.
It was also the only Heatwave album to feature James Dean "J.D." Nicholas, he left the band after the album's release in 1980 to replace Lionel Richie as a lead singer of the Commodores in 1984.
The album was remastered and reissued on compact disc (CD) with bonus tracks in 2010 by Big Break Records (CDBBR 0024).
