I sort of compare the German synthpop group, Alphaville, with the Norwegian synthpop group, a-ha. I think that's because I subconsciously view them as one-hit wonders, when that really is not the case at all.
There is no question that Alphaville is best known for the song, Forever Young, the title track of its first album. Everyone knows this song, right? The other big songs from this album were Big in Japan, Sounds like Melody, and Fallen Angel.
For me, this is another album I might listen to for nostalgia reasons. As far as 80s music goes, this was peripheral to me in many ways, much like a-ha. We haven't really come to any of my favourite releases from that decade yet.
