reeling back in disgust every time i remember that my favorite media is also consumed by the greater public and not only my small group of incredibly correct and incredibly autistic mutuals
"Sounds Like a Melody" is a song by the German synth-pop group Alphaville, from the group's debut album Forever Young (1984). The song was a big success in continental Europe and South Africa, reaching the Top 10; it topped the charts in Italy and Sweden, and was certified Gold in Germany.
Originally, Alphaville had planned to release "Forever Young" as their second single, to follow the success of "Big in Japan". However, record studio executives requested that Alphaville release an additional song between the two singles, and as a result "Sounds Like a Melody" was written and arranged in just two days. This corporate pressure caused the band to dislike the song and they refused to play it live for over 10 years.
"Sounds Like a Melody" received a total of 70,4% yes votes!
