Talk Talk - It's My Life

Not unlike The Blue Nile, this is a band that made precious few records. Talk Talk only released five studio recordings from 1981 to 1991, and only four had the original line up. Many critics say the band got better with age, but I still love their breakthrough record It's My Life.

This record goes from moody contemplation to dance hit without stress. I remember spending many a Saturday night in college dancing and singing along to this record (and a couple of pretty good music videos it spawned). This is a record that stands the test of time.
