Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally written as a simple romantic piano piece, 'Head Over Heels' evolved into a lush, dynamic pop rock production that highlights the duo's exceptional vocal harmonies. The track's whimsical, surreal music video, set in a library, contributed significantly to their continued domination of American airwaves during the mid-1980s.
