Culture Club's "Karma Chameleon,"
Wham!'s "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," the Thompson Twins' "Hold Me Now," and
Tina Turner's "What's Love Got to Do With It." Add
The Romantics' "Talking in Your Sleep,"
Deniece Williams' "Let's Hear It for the Boy," and
Billy Ocean's "Caribbean Queen," and it's one of the decade's strongest collections of singles.
Ray Parker, Jr.'s hit theme to Ghostbusters and
Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart" round out this solidly entertaining compilation of 1984's ten biggest hits. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
