Biography

Berlin is an American new wave band featuring lead singer Terri Nunn, bassist John Crawford, keyboard players David Diamond and Matt Reid, guitarist Rick Olsen and drummer Rob Brill.

Berlin was known in the 1980s for its overt sensuality and themes of heartbreak, best expressed in the hit single and corresponding music video of "Sex (I'm a...)" from the 1982 album "Pleasure Victim".

Editorial Reviews

Review

Fans of 80s new wave are in for an extra special treat on this innovative compilation featuring one of the most celebrated band of that decade, Berlin!

Includes Berlin s smash hit singles Sex (I m A), Metro and Take My Breath Away along with daring remixes of No More Words, Masquerade, Pleasure Victim and more!

Brilliant, dance club ready remixes by Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Mission UK, Astralasia and more!

This is a great compilation at a fantastic price!

With the amazing level of success Berlin achieved in the '80s, it wouldn't really be fair to say they were ahead of their time. Rather, they defined their time. Visionaries perhaps, in the sense of how fresh and modern their hits still sound in today's climate of electroclash and n wave revivalism. Tracks like "Masquerade," "Sex (I'm A)," and the still hot "Metro" display the band's influence as a major force in the global electro movement. While the glamorous Terri Nunn and her L.A. fashionistas owned the decade of excess, they've thankfully reunited and continue exciting long time fans as well as spreading their pleasure to the next wave. In the spirit of these millennia they've bridged, this breakthrough collection of hits chronicles both the classic and cutting edge ends of Berlin's shimmering career spectrum. Enjoy the ride! --Cleopatra Records

This review is from: Metro: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
POSITIVE: If you're a casual fan or only vaguely familiar with Berlin, this is a great primer. It's affordable, concise and has all the hits.

NEGATIVE: I'm not real big on remixes and this album is loaded with them, but for you that may be a plus. Obviously tracks 5-12 are remixes (but what of?). Tracks 1-4 are NOT the original recordings, they are re-recordings. Maybe not a big deal to you but I prefer the originals.

1.0 out of 5 stars not original songs, August 18, 2008
Very simple- if you like a song and want to hear it, why download some garbage re-recording? Listen before you buy.
