Advantages: Fantastic Eighties power pop with flawless production and star tracks Disadvantages: A few saccharine and bland moments
Belinda Carlisle - Runaway Horses
It's October 1989. This is the tail-end of the Eighties; as the economic boom splutters out, the poll tax demands arrive and the national mood finally begins to turn. Sure, in Manchester, the indie kids and students are hanging out at the Hacienda and listening to the Stone Roses. But in the vast swathes of suburban Britain, on a dozen MOR commercial radio stations and on the ITV Chart Show every weekend, they're ... ...3 min 3 seconds.
Runaway Horses
This is the title track from the eponymous album and a live favourite. Another stomping power-chorus designed to convey energy, excitement... you get the picture. The bridge is particularly addictive: "Out on the road, I'll share your secrets..."
Vision of You
Slower and softer paced ballad: "Did I walk or did you run? What's the way to love someone?" It's a fine melody; although the lyrics do veer a little towards ...

Advantages: Every song is an advantage Disadvantages: Just that this album is not long enough!
This album was released in 1989. Back then I was 5 years old- so music wasn't at the front of my priorities! Fast forward 15 years and in 2004 I was at work listening to the radio and a song came on that my ears were immediately attracted to.
Once at home I relayed the lyrics into the internet and I discovered a song called 'Leave a light on' by a fabulous singer called 'Belinda Carlisle'
Belinda Carlisle is an American artist, who first found ... ...to Morgan Mason, who's father is the well-known British actor James Mason, they have one son together.
She works closely with a guy called Rick Nowels, who also worked with Stevie Nicks- If you are hoping to find out who Belinda sounds like before you try this album- I can easily compare her to Stevie Nicks.
'Runaway Horses' was the first Belinda Carlisle album I bought, and I don't have anything bad to say about it apart from the fact its too ...

I think Runaway horses is one of the best albums ever, so I guess I’m a fan. The fact is that this was the follow up to the hit Heaven album and is a real gem and filled with great songs. I think Belinda shines on this album and it’s easily her best music to date. The tracks to look out for is the title track and the chart hit leave a light on, summer rain and (we want) the same thing. The album only contains ten tracks but if they’re all good no ...
