Hang On Little Tomato is the second studio album by American band Pink Martini, released on October 19, 2004, by their own record label, Heinz Records. It has been certified gold in France, Canada, Greece, and Turkey.[3] It was then certified double platinum in France by the UPFI in 2013.[4] In 2014, it was awarded a platinum certification from the Independent Music Companies Association,[5] denoting sales in excess of 400,000 copies across Europe.[6] As of October 2013, it had sold 750,000 copies worldwide.[7]

Overview

As a change from their first album, Pink Martini's second album Hang On Little Tomato features mostly original songs written by band members, and sung in six different languages (French, Italian, Japanese, Croatian, Spanish and English).

The song title is a reference to the Hunt's Ketchup ad campaign "Hang On, Little Tomato!" in a 1964 issue of Life magazine.[8]
