It was released on November 27, 1985, by RCA Victor. Billboard Hot 100. Included in this reissue is no less than 3 hit singles, including the Hot 100 No. Lots of synths and keys with a distinctly 80s drum sound, it's definitely worth having for the two major UK hit singles but other than that I find it pretty forgettable. 1 classics "Broken Wings" and "Kyrie" in addition to the No. Man I love this record.

Mr. Mister's style of classy, hard synth-pop has elements to appeal to nearly everyone's taste, and the songwriting is such that basically every track could have been a huge radio hit, yet it doesn't come off as crassly commercial. I happened to be waxing nostalgic one day and decided to order the CD. Credits adapted from the liner notes of Welcome to the Real World. I'm not a vinyl snob, either. I am fortunate to have the early Victor Japan pressing and when I put on Welcome To The Real World CD I step back in time! 57 on the U.S. Your recently viewed items and featured recommendations, Select the department you want to search in.

I had both of these singles on different compilation discs, and had the album briefly back in 1985, but had forgotten about the irresistibly frothy single 'Is It Love', until I heard it again recently on an 80s internet radio station, and just had to track it down. As mentioned previously, there is one caveat, the abhorrent "Run To Her"; an obligatory (for the time) and incredibly boring ballad that in those days was certain to be your girlfriend's favorite track on the album and the only track that you just could not stand. Simply a fantastic album. Sold by Media Supplies Outlet and ships from Amazon Fulfillment. I compared all 3 hits (Kyrie, Is It Love, Broken Wings) of all their mixes on this cd to vinyl rips and the vinyl sounds sooo much better.

This revamped version from Rock Candy includes the original album re-mastered and sounding ridiculously good, along w/ several tasty bonuses that include 2 additional versions of my personal favorite, "Is It Love?". If they had omitted "Is it love" and "Tangent tears" this could have been one of the best albums of the 80's, pop/prog at its best! I love Mr. Mister they are a unique group with a wonderful sound.
