What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



After a 4 year break for solo projects, this is the sixth album from Bryan and the boys. Not my favorite, but it'll do. The cutting edge had become dull by this point. This did become their best selling album in the U.S. at #23. The group was always bigger in the U.K. where it reached #7. First single was Trash which did nothing but the follow up of the dance flavored Dance Away (favorite) became a hit in the U.K. along with the next single of Angel Eyes which I don't even like. Those last 2 were both remixed in an extended version for the dance clubs. Dance Away didn't even crack the top 40 here. For me this album was a little too disco flavored. I hated disco. My music life was only saved by the punk movement of the time.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Cry, Cry, Cry

Best Track - Dance Away

Yesterday - well it seemed so cool
When I walked you home, kissed goodnight
I said "it´s love" you said "all right"
It´s funny how I could never cry
Until tonight and you pass by
Hand in hand with another guy
You´re dressed to kill and guess who´s dying?
Dance away the heartache
Dance away the tears
- dance away
Loneliness is a crowded room
Full of open hearts turned to stone
All together all alone
All at once my whole world had changed
Now i´m in the dark, off the wall
Let the strobe light up them all
I close my eyes and dance till dawn
- dance away
Now I know I must walk the line
Until I find an open door
There was I - many times a fool
I hope and pray, but not too much
Out of reach is out of touch
All the way is far enough
- dance away
