I always enjoyed this album. Tory Tate was with The Teardrop Explodes and band which I also liked. I still have my vinyl copy. I managed to transfer my album to cd a year ago. It sounds great and its like rediscovering it again. Maybe thats why it made my top ten.

Excellent then and now. Has stood the test of decades. Just sit back and let Kate unfold from the first song to the last. On a personal note that makes a great album to me. She was never overplayed back then on alternative radio. Listen to this album again its a GEM.

Ahhh those college years. My favorite and a classic in the new wave/goth explosion in the mid 1980's.

Another masterpiece of an album then and now. I spent much time listening to them back then and this is my fav by them.

My second favorite album by this band. They were truly amazing. I was a U2 fan at this time as well but I like The Sound much better.

Extremely well done album. Deborah Berg has a voice so clean that you feel as if you have taken a long bath after listening to this album. Along with her Eye To Eye partner, keyboardist Julian Marshall, are impressive songwriting and performing talents. It is a pop music masterpiece. I could not get enough of it then and I still seem to play the cd when I need to unwind. Their other albums are great but this will always remain a favorite. A Must Listen if you not familar.

Take The Time To listen to this album again. If your not familar with this album by them then give it a try. Its on my list because I listened to this again since I don't remember. Manages to please while never quite abandoning a desire to be something more than a mere pop album.

To me the entire album is very well done. The sound was theatrical, awash in kitschy keyboards, but felt new and refreshing back in 1982 and it still sounds new and refreshing today. There is not a single bad tune here. If all you know is "Dont You Want Me Baby" you may be in for a surprise. I enjoyed it then and I still enjoy it from time to time. Fun to listen to!!

Excellent Album I listened to constantly back in 1983 in college. It was a standout album of the 80's with its wonderful dark overtones and its subject matters. There's not one song that is out of place on this album.

The Sound was one talented band from England. Extremely popular on college radio in the 80's. Undiscovered by main stream radio. Album reissued on cd awhile back. My vinyl was well played in college. If you have never heard their music please take some time to listen.

Paul Revere, No Sleep to Brooklyn, Girls, etc... Another cutting edge album of the time that I can always listen to.

Careless Whispers could be the best song ever!

Photograph, Rock of Ages, etc.... By Far the Best Def Leppard album!!!

Master & Servant, Somebody, Blasphemous Rumours, People are People, etc... Come on, what a great album!!!

Wanted Dead or Alive, You Give Love a Bad Name, etc... This was popular when I was in Basic Training and always brings back memories.

A Greatest Hits Collection of the Cure to include; The Hanging Garden, Love Cats, Let's go to Bed, etc... I also love Kiss me Kiss Me Kiss Me, Japenese Whispers, and Disintegration but could only list one!

Faithfully, Seperate Ways, send Her My Love,... Actually my favorite Journey Album.

Lucky Star, Borderline, Everybody,.... Another Great Album. Brings many fond memories!

Purple Rain, The Beautiful Ones, Dove's Cry, and Let's Go Crazy (to name a few). I can still listen to this album over and over!

Billie Jean, Thriller, Beat it, Human Nature (1st couples skate with my wife), and PYT. Great Album!

catchy songs, a little soft but good solid album

Jukebox Hero, Break It Up, Excellent

At their peak

Pop Metal, Power Metal excellent singer, catchy songs

In my opinion, better than Moving Pictures. Great album

no comments necessary

Excellent tracks, meaningful songs

great songs should have been a bigger album

Excellent flow good pop album

Every Track is good, Mother,Father and Still They Ride are Awesome

The most haunting album I ever heard.

The best album put out ever by a female band.

One of the best albums to put on the CD while driving in the rain.

My favorite band of the 80's. Best album cover.

Wow !! That is all i can say. Wow.

Classic ! A couple of throw away songs like The Girl is Mine. But great dance songs.

I do not attend church but this album makes me feel closer to God than any other music or organized church.

One of my favorite songs of all time "Victims". What a soul filled voice. Very weird guy now.

Why can't Prince make music like this again? He tries but part of the success was The Revolution. Probably the best album from start to beginning.

The sounds were original and catchy. One of the most overlooked bands of the 80s. Every song is catchy and memorable.

Not a huge fan of Heavy Metal but in the 80s there were plenty of genre-breakers to go around...I thought their debut was their best...Sorrow is a Woman, Wasted and Answer to The Master standout

Once I heard Troy I was never the same again. The album as a whole had the same effect and should probably have been further up on this list...standouts includ Troy, Mandinka, Drink Before The War and Just Like U Said It Would B

Perfect Pop...considered by some to be just a step above Milli Vanilli on the taken seriously list...I thought this collection of singles and unreleased material apart from Make It Big was indeed a very nice goodbye from the duo...Standouts for me include Edge Of Heaven, Where Did Your Heart Go, Wham Rap '86 and Battle Stations

Run DMC, The Beastie Boys and LL Cool J as great as they were couldn't put together as great an 80's rap album...Friends, Freaks Come out At Night and Escape(I Need A Break)

Their 1986 comeback album after the death of their guitarist Ricky Wilson...probably their most serious album as '86 but still alot of fun and very musical...Summer Of Love, Ain't It A Shame and She Brakes For Rainbows standout for me

Al Jourgensen hates their debut which sounds nothing like "Stigmata" or even "Halloween"...perfect alternative pop. Standouts Revenge, I Wanted To Tell Her and Work For Love

Great collection of singles and their B-sides (short and sweet) from the legendary 80s Band...standouts for me Let's Go To Bed, Just One Kiss and The Upstair's Room

He thought big in a very big way...MJ was the perfect artists at just the perfect time....Thriller stopped time...standout for me include Billie Jean, Wanna Be Startin' Something and Human Nature

Panned by critics as a disappointing follow-up to Purple Rain...i actually found this album to be imaginative and brilliant if not as commercial...standouts for me include Pop Life, Paisley Park and Condition of the Heart

Bold Statement...kind of sized up their contribution to music at the time...not sure any 80s artist could have put out this great a Greatest Hits collection in 1983! It covered alot of ground... Where to start...Kiss On My List, I Can't Go For That, You Make My Dreams(Come True), Maneater, Private Eyes, One on One...Their first hit of the 80s Wait For Me (an amazing Live Version), 70s classics still receiving lots of airplay - She's Gone, Sara Smile and Rich Girl plus two new hits Adult Education and Say it Isn't So...the remastered version contains the omitted Family Man

the most underrated and overlooked record by amazing Laura

I love everything from this band

Smooth Operator is one of my favorite songs in the world

Maria Magdalena is one of the most memorable songs from the 80's. Thank you Sandra

classical record from Madge with numerous hits like Like A Prayer, Express Yourself, Cherish...

brilliant voice, brilliant songs, brilliant album

'Angel' is my favorite song from Aerosmith. That's why I added this album

I adore songs Summer Rain, Vision of You and La Luna

Brilliant records with brilliant songs "Summer of '69", "Heaven", "Somebody", "Run to You" etc

All 9 songs were superb. "La Isla Bonita" and "Papa Don't Preach" are my 2 all-time favorite songs

Same as for #9 above.

Heard the album at my ex brother in laws; liked it and bought it.

Bought it for "I Can't Go For That", but enjoyed the whole album.

Saw the movie; bought the album. I love all of his work.

Love the whole album.

Bought it for "Jump". which I broke my foot to at a company picnic back in '84.

#2 album of all time, in my opinion.

One of their best.

I bought the album just for "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go", but ended up liking the whole thing.

#1 album of all time. His best!!

A fine album of sexual tensions and issues against a new sax and bass format, yet Gary Numan still uses synths to convey atmosphere, also an under rated album.

All of what they write about on this album has come true

They may be embarrassed and there are better albums but this one is synth pop at it's finest

Electronic dance at it's finest

Harder rock sounds but still dreamy with brilliant synth sounds

Sampling gone mad which is now beyond just a fun album but a social commentary on life in England in the eighties

Brilliance sound and lyrics

Mr X is the ultimate electronic track

Pure poetry with dreamy synth sounds

Pure electronic pop
