Theme of the Month - 1980's Music

Released in 1984, Barbra Streisand's platinum album 'Emotion' is one of her easily forgotten gems, sadly overshadowed by some of her better selling albums. There is an impressive list of songwriters who added their talents to the album, as well as Barbra herself, Jim Steinman who is famous for his work with Meatloaf, as well as Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart', wrote and produced the seven minute rock ballad 'Left In The Dark', which was also the albums first single. Maurice White, founder and lead singer of the soul band 'Earth Wind And Fire' also leaves his mark on the album with producing and songwriting. Barbra is joined on the albums second single 'Make No Mistake, He's Mine' by the songs writer Kim Carnes, who is famous for her own single 'Bette Davis Eyes'. Other writers include John Mellencamp, and the then unknown Diane Warren. The albums third and final single was the title track 'Emotion'.
