Alphaville – Jet Set (Jellybean Mix) (Germany 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

“Jet Set” is the fourth and last single from Alphaville’s first album, Forever Young, and was released in March 1985.

Re-recorded and released after founding band member Frank Mertens left the band, the 7″ version drops the word ‘The’ from the song’s title and is mildly different from the original album version.

Marian Gold said of the song, “We didn’t intend to write a proper song; it was supposed to be some kind of jingle that advertises things money can’t buy: anarchy, freedom, love, fun and a piece of the end of the world.”

The Deluxe Edition re-issue of the LP “Forever Young” is now available.

The following year, co-writer Terry Hall re-recorded the song with his own band, Fun Boy Three. It was included on their second album Waiting and reached number seven on the UK Singles Chart and was the last single to chart in the UK, before their split later in 1983. Backing vocals were provided by Mo-dettes drummer June Miles-Kingston, who also played drums on the single and the Waiting LP.
