THE REVIEW

No nothing.

I just wanted to say that this is the best song of the last 20 years (actually 25 since it was released in 1982), nothing more. I admit it competes with “Heroes” and “Ashes to Ashes”, but it's better: it combines immediacy, true indie orgasm, persistence (listen to it Nino, it's still good now).

I independently launch a survey: what's the best song, the best 45 RPM single ever? Come on!
