"Shame" is a 1977 single recorded by American singer Evelyn "Champagne" King, written by John H. Fitch, Jr. and Reuben Cross, and released by RCA Records. It was released by RCA Records as part of King's debut album, Smooth Talk. The extended remix was produced for the twelve-inch vinyl single and would later replace the album version of the song in late-1970s reprints of the album. "Shame" was successful on Billboard music charts and would become one of King's signature songs, though it varied on international music charts. The song was covered by Zhané for the 1994 film A Low Down Dirty Shame and Kim Wilde in 1996.

Evelyn "Champagne" King version

The song "Shame" was released as part of King's 1977 album Smooth Talk and lasts four minutes and thirty-eight seconds. The album version opens with a saxophone note and is "more concise." Al Garrison and David Todd produced the extended remix for the twelve-inch vinyl single, which lasts around six minutes and thirty-five seconds, two minutes longer than the album version, and would replace the album version of the song in late-1970s vinyl re-releases of the album. The extended remix rearranges the drum notes to " the beat more." Producer Tommy Faragher remixed the song entitled "Shame '95 (Tommy Faragher Remix)" for King's 1995 album, I'll Keep a Light On.

The twelve-inch remix vinyl release reached number eight on Billboard's Disco Action in January 1978. The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number eighty-seven on the week of June 17, 1978; it peaked at number nine on the week of September 9 that year. It also reached number seven on Hot Soul Singles on the week of July 1. The song earned a Gold certification by the RIAA on August 11, 1978. In the UK Singles Chart, the song spent twenty-three weeks in the chart but only one week in the top 40, peaking at number thirty-nine. In the Netherlands, it peaked at number eighteen for two weeks on the Dutch Top 40 chart and number twenty-six on the Single Top 100. It reached number twelve on Belgian Ultratop Top 50 Singles.

King's version is featured in the 2002 video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on the in-game radio station Fever 105 and also as part of the soundtrack Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Vol. 6: Fever 105.

To this date, "Shame" remains one of King's signature songs.
