Alphaville doesn't have a worst song. They don't have a best song. They are all over the map with music. They have more great songs unheard by the masses than anyone. I haven't read posts on this thread because I'll end up defending every song mentioned. Especially on strange attractor, crazy show and salvation. Demos fighting words. Lol

Thank you for saying none on strange attractor. It really is a masterpiece. I love every song on it. I do have a 2 word criticism though: deluxe version!

There's no such thing as a worst song. It's all about personal preference.


Before you judge me, make sure you're perfect.

"The worst song" that's seems a quite unseemly. It feels like "there are some bad tracks on the album and one is the worst. " I don't quite relate with that. Let's call it "the last preferable track on the album."

FY: The jet set
AIU: IAO ( or if you like Afternoons in utopia)
TBB: Ariana
P: (probably) Some people (I'm not fan of Impossible dream neither)
S: Can't find any, sorry... this album is just perfect all the way through
CS: About a heart, Giants, Upside down
CROG: (probably) The things I didn't do
SA: Can't decide between House of the ghosts and Rendezvoyeur (I quite like both though)

"I have to say I agree with you Trent! New Horizons is a beautiful song....especially that part where he sings "you are a rainbow, you´re looking fine".

But I also agree with Avil. It´s not so good live. But the album version is great!!"


I've also though about this from the first point I heart this track. OK, I'm not specifically saying that Marian sounds like Bono on this one but I certainly agree it's a kind of U2 song and I can imagine Bono's singing this. Although New horizont has to sublime electronic vibe compare to U2. They'd obviously put some more guitar on it and cut the synths down.
