Living in Oblivion: The 80's Greatest Hits, Vol. 4

Living in Oblivion: The 80's Greatest Hits, Vol. 4 (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

Living in Oblivion, Vol. 4 continues the downward spiral of the series. There's little rhyme or reason to the song selection on the disc, as it jumps from new wave to goth-rock to mainstream rock to alternative. That scattershot approach prevents the album from being a cohesive listen, but the disc does contain several classics, including "Dance ...

True

True (1983) more music like this

by Spandau Ballet

By 1983, with the new romantic movement they'd sprung from a rapidly fading memory, the members of Spandau Ballet showed they had no intention of traveling the same path. Always ambitious, the British quintet really got down to business: Gone were the kilts, frilly shirts, and makeup -- as well as the sometimes chilly electronics of their first ...

The Singles Collection (1985) more music like this

by Spandau Ballet

An excellent round-up of the 15 hit singles that, between late 1980 and fall 1984, saw Spandau Ballet transcend every prediction ever levelled at their music, and establish themselves among the most versatile British bands of their era. From the utterly convincing white boy Funk of the early "To Cut A Long Story Short", "The Freeze", "Musclebound ...

by Various Artists

This entry into Billboard's continuing series reveals 1983 to be a year of one-hit wonders -- Michael Sembello ("Maniac"), the Greg Kihn Band ("Jeopardy"), Eddy Grant ("Electric Avenue"), and Spandau Ballet ("True") are among the many who failed to recapture their chart success in the years to follow. Among the other selections: Bonnie Tyler's ...

Living in Oblivion: The 80's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

A somewhat haphazardly assembled retrospective of '80s pop, Living in Oblivion contains not only classic new wave cuts, but also features several MTV hits from the mid-'80s and radio hits from the end of the decade. While there are some great songs on every volume, each disc is wildly inconsistent; only the first disc is somewhat coherent. ...

Gold: The Best of Spandau Ballet

Gold: The Best of Spandau Ballet (2001) more music like this

by Spandau Ballet

By the time Gold emerged in 2000, Spandau Ballet had gone the full circle, from hip young new romantic things, to pop-soul chart-toppers, to rock burnouts, to unexpected influences, to golden oldies. PM Dawn memorably revamped "True" for their own smash, "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss," in the early '90s and Negativland did their own tweak with "True ...

The One and Only Love Album is a double-disc collection of pop/rock songs, most of them adult contemporary ballads from the '70s and '80s. There are a number of great songs here -- "I'm Not in Love," "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart," "I Want to Make It with You," "More Than Words," "Wonderful Tonight," "Up Where We Belong," "All Out of Love," ...

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Vol. 11

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Vol. 11 (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

The 11th volume of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's is the beginning of the third and final volume of the series, and here, they start to wrap things up rather quickly. That means that they begin favoring hits instead of obscurities which, all things considered, is hardly a bad thing. In fact, the collections become more listenable ...

Monster '80s (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

Monster '80s certainly lives up to its name, collecting some of the decade's most memorable singles, from the suave, sophisticated pop of Spandau Ballet's "True" to the ultra-perky cheerleader chant of Toni Basil's "Mickey." The Stray Cats' "Stray Cat Strut" and Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes" relive the '50s via the '80s, while Rick Springfield's ...

Love Songs: Gold (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

A two-disc grab-bag compilation spanning several decades and genres, Hip-O's Love Songs: Gold fares well for a release that's so broad and seemingly random. It's certain that no one could possibly have a strong stomach for all 40 of the selections (let alone any given 30), and there are some very polarizing hits here, where fans and haters feel ...

by Various Artists

The 12th volume of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's is much like its predecessor, containing a selection of big, big new wave hits balanced by lesser-known cuts, usually heard on MTV or, maybe, college radio. Really, this is too pop-oriented to be considered college radio-oriented, but there's still a number of cuts that straddle ...

Diamond (1982) more music like this

by Spandau Ballet

With the new romantic movement they'd helped spearhead on the way out, futurist icons Spandau Ballet began thinking seriously about the future on their second album. The seeds of the group's transition to a slick, MOR soul outfit can be heard in hits like "Chant No. 1," the best song Spandau Ballet had come up with. More funk than rock, "Chant No. ...

Each volume of Richard Blade's Flashback Favorites collects rare dance mixes and 12-inch versions of songs from familiar new wave and post-punk bands. This is specialist material, but for collectors seeking these mixes, these CD collections are an excellent choice. Vol. 4 contains 12 songs, including Tears for Fears' "The Way You Are," When In ...

Billboard Top Hits: 1980-1984 (1980) more music like this

by Various Artists

Rhino does it again with this five-disc set chronicling the top hits from the first half of the '80s (each disc was originally released separately). And what a strange time it was: while disco gasped for air and new wave was on the rise, the new face of pop made its bloated and steely debut. Hear how veterans like Diana Ross ("Upside Down") and ...

CEMA Special Markets' Rock of the '80s, Vol. 6 is a haphazard but quite enjoyable collection of New Wave, album rock and mainstream pop hits from the '80s. There aren't any surprises, but everything here -- including "Miss Me Blind," "Freeze-Frame," "Stray Cat Strut," "Spy in the House of Love," "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)," "Shattered Dreams ...

by Naked Eyes & Spandau Ballet

Naked Eyes and Spandau Ballet make for a good pairing on this edition of EMI-Capitol Special Markets' Back 2 Back Hits series, which features five tracks apiece from each artist. Naked Eyes was one of the better synth pop groups, and Spandau Ballet was one of the key new romantic outfits, but they're both remembered as one- (maybe two-) hit ...

Although the majority of Spandau Ballet compilations have been absolutely superseded by the Reformation box set, that set's need to present rare and live material alongside the expected highlights leaves a gaping hole in the band's resumé, one that The Twelve Inch Mixes effortlessly plugs. Originally issued as one half of the band's British vinyl ...

Madacy's Rock On 1983 shows just how popular the new wave style had become. Of the 12 songs the compilers picked to represent the year, eight could be considered new wave to some degree. Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me with Science," Naked Eyes' "Always Something There to Remind Me," and the Tubes' "She's a Beauty" are the best of this bunch. The ...

Rock of the 80's [CEMA] (1988) more music like this

CEMA Special Markets' Rock of the 80's collects ten hit songs from the decade. Seemingly compiled without reason or theme, the tracks are mostly made up of soft-rocking AOR staples. The main thing they have in common is the glossy processed sound of the '80s and solid hooks. The standouts are Night Ranger's "You Can Still Rock in America," ...
