Daytona74 Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) There was no escaping this song here in Europe in the summer of 1985. Not here in Germany, not in Italy on the beach, where we spent two weeks that summer. Not even passing through Switzerland on the way there. Italo Disco's finest moment? Who knows. But certainly one of the genre's songs that made the most money Edited July 1, 2018 by Daytona74 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agent 47 Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Love Baltimora, the Living in the Background album that song is from is a very solid album overall too especially Chinese Restaurant. Also, my current song is "Dragnet" by Art of Noise. Edited July 17, 2018 by agent 47 NOTE: For some reason either Ublock origin or Privacy Badger were preventing me from imbedding videos.

Daytona74 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 I was a big fan of Alphaville as a ten and eleven year old. Like many vinyl records back then, I bought the album "Forever Young" that this song was on the day it came out in autumn of 1984 "Forever Young" just might be the best German synthpop albums of the whole early 80s. Very well made songs that sound "of their time" in the best kind of way, by a band that was audibly enjoying itself. Highly recommended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent Hanna Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Didn't know the Beatles did anything this heavy and bluesy. Cool stuff. Heard the opening riff and thought it was Black Sabbath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona74 Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) A track celebrating the unity of Latin culture across borders...

Those cars in Havana where the video was shot have been through much worse... I went to Cuba once and saw many of them up close... oftentimes, only the outer shell is still the original. Due to the embargo, spare parts for American cars have always been difficult to source, but that didn't stop inventive Cubans from keeping the cars running using anything they could come by. So your '57 Buick might actually have a Russian Lada engine under the hood or a diesel truck engine, maybe even a boat engine. Other than that though, they are often in remarkable condition on the outside, despite the damp tropical climate.
