One final mention from me for now...

Arcadia - So Red the Rose. "Election Day" and "Goodbye is Forever" seriously remain my favorite 80's Pop memories. This is the one where 3/4 of Duran Duran go arty on us, lose fans, and create at least a couple of great singles. In a way, a compare and contrast to Powerstation's huge selling thundering chunk of Big 80's Pop (which I have..."Some Like It Hot" however is a guilty pleasure) is a reminder of how the 80's changed in '85. Sophisticated music, Mega videos, a big list of guests (including Grace Jones on "Election Day"), and a big promotion all wrapped up in a hideous cover which to this day I still blame for it's quick tank. I used to laugh at this one, until one day...
