80's Synthpop

Michael Barnes' mentioning of Gary Numan in his current article reminded me to dig up this old favorite of mine. Feel free to join in.

Alphaville

Although these guys probably made more bad records than good ones, their first (Forever Young) is a real classic. I intentionally don't include their biggest hits (Forever Young, Big In Japan) from the album, instead let's hear some songs that, in my opinion, are even better than the hits.

A Victory Of Love


Lies


Fallen Angel


To Germany With Love

Leave it to the Krauts

Thanks.

FYI, Alphaville are Krauts as well.

Oops.

Thanks for the Alphaville stuff! Forever Young was a huge song for me as a kid thanks to camp.

I don.t know which song it is, but alphaville had one of my favourite videoclips with three men and a chest on a floating platform trying to keep balance. they all tried very hard to get at the chest so the platform ends up tilting and they all fall off. Brilliant
