Were you there with ALPHAVILLE

[Froggy]

Don't know why just about an hour ago listened to an old Alphaville album and greatly enjoyed the songs brought back lots of fond memories, everyone knows Big in Japan and Forever Young both I love but my favourite is Jerusalem, love the melody

Went to search for Marian Gold the lead singer and found that he looks very different now

​

All his old members now gone, missed especially the other founder on keyboard Bernhard Llyod.

So funny to even see a young lady on bass.

Never know they have huge fan base in Russia, look at this concert, saw many folks my age or older enjoying. These guys must be listening to Alphaville underground during the Soviet era.

The Forever Young Album is Alphaville's best album, I like it a lot. Besides Big in Japan and Forever Young that everyone knows, I really like Fallen Angel, Lies and Victory of Love.

Their other albums in 80s also have some very nice songs. One thing I like about Alphaville in the 80s is that their music and lyrics were quite unique and sometimes strange, their songs are an acquired taste that many people may not like. But sadly I find their later albums in the 90s have declined and not as good as their 80s albums.

Yeah me too, I really like Lassie, come home.. and Fantastic Dream from same The Afternoons in Utopia album

The Breathtaking Blue has some very jazz type songs, for some unknown reason I really like She Fades Away

Both albums are great.

There's also Sounds like a melody.



certainly brings back a lot of memories. The mid 80s was a very impressionable time for me So glad I grew up during that period
