Thomas Dolby, "Europa and the Pirate Twins"

Thomas Dolby is fondly remembered for his defining MTV era novelty hit "She Blinded Me With Science," but this, his first single, shows what a bright, original sound he brought to synthpop. The bittersweet narrative tells the tale of childhood friends separated by World War II, but the sheer sonic playfulness of the song showcases a maverick creating a new musical world. – Nick Dedina, Google Play
