Number 155: Phil Oakey & Giorgio Moroder - Together In Electic Dreams
When Phil Oakey took a brief break from his career with The Human League in 1984, he joined famed Italian record producer Giorgio Moroder on a hit solo album, fittingly titled Philip Oakey & Giorgio Moroder. The biggest single from this collaboration (which yielded a total of three charting songs) was "Together In Electric Dreams", a worldwide smash. After releasing one LP the duo went their separate ways, Oakey returning to Human League and Moroder going on to produce Limahl's "Neverending Story" in 1985. But here they are together at #155 on my list.
well it is certainly an upgrade over his previous work with Donna Summer ... every time I hear "MacArthur Park" I throw up a little in my mouth
