“Like Flames” 

Berlin

We need to discuss Berlin. Their EP Pleasure Victim is one of the Snicks Certified Top Twenty Albums Of The 80’s™, and their followup Love Life featured their first top 40 single with “No More Words.” Then came – that song. “Take My Breath Away” was a career maker/killer for the band, who were torn by its success. They would never recover. Their next album Count Three And Pray was a flop, ending the band, and the anthemic gem “Like Flames” would be completely forgotten, peaking at #82 in November 1986.
