Their big macho rhythms and extensive use of keyboards sound rather dated and kitsch nowadays, but their über happy brand of pop still provides the catchiness and enthusiasm typical of the eighties. Their 1985 single The Power Of Love became iconic as the theme song to the movie Back To The Future, and the following years they struck multiplatinum with the album Fore and the single Hip To Be Square (as featured in American Psycho, in which it is presented as the serial killer’s favorite song).
