"Some-time-back in '85, inJuly-when the summer was high" the European continent was rocked to its very foundation when the now legendary Italo/Eurodance act Modern Talking's "The First Album" exploded into life with a musical Big Bang. This explosion created an exciting new universe filled with a plethora of Eurodance/Italo Disco bands like Bad Boys Blue, London Boys, C. C. Catch and many others. In 2003 Modern Talking decided to disband and in doing so they went supernova and their light went out like that of an exploding dying star. But Modern Talking's demise did not mean an end of the sound that they had created, it was a continuation, as the torch that contained MT's brilliant light had been passed on to a new generation of bands influenced by Modern Talking. Modern Talking had created an endless universe in which their sound would continue on forever and ever, so it was fitting that they named their final album, "Universe."
Modern Talking's universe is a Eurodance/Italo disco universe populated with glamourous icy queens. You will find witch queens, gypsy queens, voodoo queens, the Queen of Hearts and of course the infamous, "Queen of the Night." Not every woman in this universe is an unattainable regal beauty; others are beautiful, chic, classy, vivacious, down to earth ladies full of love and fun. There are lovely ladies, little ladies, sexy ladies, "Cheri Cheri Lady," "Lady Lai," and of course the immensely desirable yet enigmatic, "Lady In Black." In this universe you will find beautiful mysterious icons like Juliet, Cinderella, and Mona Lisa who in this universe are living metaphors for all that is beautiful, mysterious and oh so European in Italo/Eurodance music.
In this universe English is the dominant language, but floating through the Italo nights you will also hear the strands of Parisian strings as Italo disco songs with French titles waft through this universe like fine cosmic dust from songs like "Belles of Paris," and "Avec Toi." New York nights are filled with the musical sound of weeping Guardian Angels whose Blue Crying Hearts are responsible for the ubiquitous glistening Frozen Tears that fall from their eyes creating a heavenly musical melody. In the new world order of the 21st century Moscow must be the new place to enjoy Italo disco as we have been taken there by several acts immersed in MT's universe. We have danced with the "Moscow Party Girl." We danced to sultry Italo disco on "Moscow Nights," during "One Summer Night In Moscow." In this euro/Italo paradise every night is a sultry Gypsy Night, and every night there is an illuminated full moon casting its light on the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, exposing the once vibrant passionate romances now incinerated by the Broken Flames of Love.
You will discover that the places that we consider myth and legend in our insignificant little universe exist in Modern Talking's universe. Only in this universe can you ride to the lost city of El Dorado with the larger than life legendary Geronimo atop his Cadillac convertible to mine not for gold but for ancient lost love. You can sail the seven seas in search of love only to end up ship wrecked on the shores of the lost continent of Atlantis, lured there by the lovelorn sirens whose melodic and hypnotic SOS For Love took over your fevered mind and made you a slave to their rhythm. Here you can board a luxurious sleek silver Jet Airliner and be whisked you off on a romantic adventure in "Shangri-La."
Like our own universe, the Modern Talking universe is also expanding and it now includes a large variety of acts that have built upon the Modern Talking sound, acts like Fresh Fox, T.M.-Joy, Johnny M5, Mark Ashley and Systems In Blue. All these acts take the keyboard wizardry, high pitched vocals, electronics and euro/Italo dance rhythms of the Modern Talking universe and use them as if they were the carbon and other building blocks of life found in our universe to create their astounding MT influenced sounds.
How many other bands besides Modern Talking have created an entire universe? The answer is none. Though legendary not the Beatles, Elvis, Michael Jackson, or even Abba created a universe were pieces of European literature, imagery, phrases, culture, real and unreal icons, legends, history, mythology, dance rhythms, keyboard work and electronics are flung together to form a mythical universe with a language and music all it's own.
This final Modern Talking CD is excellent, but it does not give you a complete picture (or sound) of the MT universe. In order to really experience the MT universe you really need to purchase all of MT's studio albums, from "The 1st Album" straight through to "Universe," that would be the only way to really experience the greatness of Modern Talking.
