Free Music Notes for Here's to Future Days
Free Music Review: Not as good as "The Gap", but still good songs
Hit: 4 Stars
During the mid-80's, there were many British New-Wave, Synth-Pop bands that had 1 or 2 big hits and then they faded from glory. The Thompson Twins were one act that had a string of hits including 3 songs to reach the Top 10. After first coming to the attention of Amercians with 1983's "Side Kicks", the band hit their creative and commercial peak with 1984's "The Gap". Truly one of the best songs of the 80's is "Hold me Now" from that album. In 1985, they followed that massive success of "The Gap" with "Here's to Future Days". The first 2 releases ("Lay Your Hands on Me" and "King for a Day") became Top 10 hits, and this was their only album to accomplish the feat of having 2 Top 10 hits. However, the third single from the album, a remake of the Beatles' "Revolution" failed to even chart on the Hot 100.
I owned this album on cassette back in the 80's. I also owned "The Gap" and "Side Kicks" on cassette. As far as non-single album cuts, I liked the music on "The Gap" and "Side Kicks" much better than the music on "Here's to Future Days". Not to say that I didn't like this album, it to me just wasn't as good as the previous albums. I bought their "Greatest Hits" CD a few years ago, however, it did not include the remake of "Revolution". I picked up this CD used just to get that remake of "Revolution".
I am sure the Thompson Twins fanatics out there have every album they have ever put out and would want this one as part of their collection. For the casual listener, your money would be better spent on the "Greatest Hits" collection which contains all of their songs for Arista to reach the Billboard Hot 100. It does not include their last Hot 100 hit, "Sugar Daddy" which was released on Warner.
