Awsome!,
By Malek Family (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Singles Collection (Audio CD)
Alphaville is awsome. The song Big In Japan is one of the best songs period in my opinion. It gives me the chills. This album is worth everypenny, from the way the CD starts on forever young with that really captivating beggining till the remix version of Big in Japan. Damn awsome!!

Brilliant group, not so good filler album for the US market,
By Si Wooldridge (Chippenham, Wiltshire England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Singles Collection (Audio CD)
This "album" was a US only compilation release for the US market as evidenced by the liner notes. This is an obvious but wasted attempt by Atlantic Records to get some exposure for this very under-rated German synth band. Alphaville had released two album by this point, the classic that was Forever Young and it's brilliant follow-up Afternoons In Utopia. This compilation doesn't do either albums justice but does bring together on disc some tracks that would probably not have made to the CD format. The Special Extended Mix of Forever Young takes a good 80's synth ballad and turns into a 6 minute dance song that is even better. Red Rose and Big In Japan were remixed in 1988 for some reason and both single versions are included here as well as the 88 remix of Big In Japan. This album also contains the original 12" mixes of Red Rose and Dance With Me. I loved every one of these tracks and as a big Alphaville fan I have no qualms in purchasing this CD. 8 tracks, 4 songs - 2 from each album. Why? The tracks are not bad by any means, but this compilation could have been so much better - check out First Harvest as the definitive Alphaville singles collection so far released 4 years after this in 1992. This CD would have been better being classified as an EP and was a wasted opportunity in promoting Alphaville to a wider audience.

Very good lost CD from the 80's.,
By John Loniewski Jr. (Suffern, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Singles Collection (Audio CD)
I found this CD in a bargain bin at the local record store and picked it up. It's a good CD which brings up a lot of nostalgia from the 80's. Track 5 is my personal favorite, but all 8 tracks are worthy of a listen.
