Berlin, una banda icónica del new wave y synth-pop, se formó en 1978 en Orange County, California. Compuesta inicialmente por John Crawford (bajista y compositor), Terri Nunn (vocalista principal) y David Diamond (tecladista), la banda surgió en un periodo de efervescencia musical, donde los sintetizadores y los sonidos electrónicos comenzaban a conquistar las pistas de baile y las emisoras de radio.
El primer gran éxito de Berlin llegó en 1982 con el lanzamiento de su EP Pleasure Victim. La canción "Sex (I'm A...)" desató controversia y captó la atención del público joven con su letra provocativa y ritmos pegajosos. Sin embargo, fue "The Metro" el tema que realmente consolidó su lugar en el panorama musical, destacándose por sus melódicos sintetizadores y la seductora voz de Nunn.
En 1984, Berlin lanzó su álbum Love Life, que llevó a la banda a nuevas alturas. Canciones como "No More Words" se convirtieron en himnos de la época, mostrando una evolución en la composición musical y la producción de la banda. Este álbum no solo reafirmó su dominio en el género, sino que también mostró su capacidad para explorar temas líricos más profundos y complejos.
La carrera de Berlin alcanzó su punto culminante en 1986 cuando "Take My Breath Away" se convirtió en el tema principal de la banda sonora de la película Top Gun. La balada ganó el Premio Oscar y el Globo de Oro Ver BiograFia Completa
Hey there, Whadd'ya know
I see you gazing at the talk-talk video
Don't know, why what you mean
When you start laughing at the talking machine
You say the stuff is better than pills
With it's future shocks & future thrills
I'm not stupid, but I don't understand
How you control your visions with a touch of a hand
Talk Talk Video-I hear, dear
Talk Talk Video-loud & clear

Talk Talk Video-I see, dear
Talk Talk Video-Quite clear
Talk Talk Video-reception is perfection

Channels changing channels changing movement to mind
Runaway programs with the runaway time
Fingers firmly grip the control
Give them a twist of the vertical hold
Existing in the 1st & 2nd dimension
vying each other for your attention
Bombarded by a sonic barage
Entrancing electric collage
Talk Talk Video-I see, dear

Seems to have a lot to say
Keeps on talking every day
Never seems to hear you talking
I hear it talking almost every day
& it always seems to have something to say
Yes, boys & girls, it's quite a box
It sings like Christ & it talks
Hey there, Whadd'ya know
I see you gazing at the talk-talk video
I'm not stupid, but I don't understand
How you control your visions with a touch of a hand
