Thoughts

I don’t know why but I suddenly got it into my head I wanted to listen to Starship, and after a lengthy conversation about which version of the band to listen to (Jeffersons, Airships, Starships, oh my), I disregarded it all and just went for this one. I actually really loved it. It’s not smart or clever, but it’s solid 80s pop that sounds exactly of the time it comes from. We Built This City is a favourite and has been stuck in my head ever since I listened to it, but all of it has a similar and fun sound.

Rating: 4 / 5
