I made this into a Spotify playlist for anyone interested. There were 3-4 tracks that Spotify didn’t have, so those are omitted. http://open.spotify.com/user/pinchworm/playlist/2YX5TPJtPb6U9RFFsSJZtT
Any idea what mix of Welcome to the Pleasuredome this was? Seriously, it was an awesomely long track, and I enjoy this song so much. Its everything good from the 80’s, in its glossy, produced, forms.
