Missing Persons Vs. Berlin

Message Bookmarked

Missing persons had the see through transparent bustier and 'Destination Unknown' and 'Words'. Also the killer drummer.

Berlin had 'Masquerade' and 'Metro' (and um ... 'Take My Breath Away') - and also a better singer.

What say you.

OC represent. Which means Berlin.

I feel like outside of Terry Bozzio and the respective singers (Dale and Terri), everything about these bands was somewhat interchangeable. I won't be hearing slams on "Take My Breath Away" though...that's some sweet Moroder honey.

For that reason alone, I give Berlin the edge.

I don't know, Missing Persons seems like they were heavier to me - like they still had some kind of '70s rock/early new wave element. I don't know as that I've heard Berlin sound like that and, I mean, "The Metro" is straight-up Euro synthpop.

What an affecting record "The Metro" is! Reminds me of my other favorite North American Euro synthpop group, Rational Youth.

Seems about right. Can't even remember who I voted for. May have not voted at all because: cannot choose.

Hmmm... Missed this. Would have voted for Missing Persons because of "Take My Breath Away".
