Track Description
Available in:
Red Rose is the fifth and final single from Alphaville's 1986 album, Afternoons in Utopia. It was released in April 1987, and is their ninth single overall.
The 7" version is a completely new studio recording of the song with a slightly different arrangement than the album version, including a new intro and fade ending.
Reviews for the song at the time were generally positive, with one reviewer calling this song "a reasonably sassy pop number that's one of various chances for [singer and songwriter Marian] Gold to exercise his Bryan Ferry fascination."
Coincidentally, Alphaville would later cover the Brian Ferry / Roxy Music song "Do the Strand" on their 2003 release, CrazyShow. Another reviewer stated that "Red Rose", alongside their other notable singles such as "Big in Japan" and "Jerusalem", "reside in the upper echelon of early-'80s synth pop".
This song reached #24 on the US Hot Dance Chart in 1987.
