Thoughts

This is everything you’d expect from a Bananarama album - fully 80s with their trademark sound, poppy and fun, and mentioning Robert De Niro for no apparent reason. It’s got a slightly disjointed feeling to it, the song Link is just a short instrumental, whilst Hot Line to Heaven takes ages to get where it’s going. But there are some great bops on there and you really can’t go wrong.
