Wow - The ABCs Of Love

Review by Zoia Ciacu

The ABCs of Love by Wow: A High-Energy Walk Down Memory Lane Alright, buckle up, because we’re diving into The ABCs of Love by Wow—a gem from 1984 that screams neon leg warmers and big hair. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill electronic album; it’s pure Hi NRG madness pumped straight outta the US on Memo Records. Produced by B. Orlando (who clearly had their caffeine fix) and penned by C. Shore, this record is two tracks of synth-soaked chaos you didn’t know you needed. Let’s talk about those tracks, shall we? First up, there’s “The ABC’s Of Love (Not As Long).” Yeah, they weren’t exactly breaking naming conventions here, but hey, why overthink when you’ve got beats for days? This version hits hard and fast like a sugar rush at a birthday party. It's catchy as heck—like, I-dare-you-to-stop-tapping-your-foot catchy. You can practically hear the glitter cannons going off in the background. The melody sticks to your brain like gum under a disco chair, which honestly feels intentional. If you’re throwing a retro-themed shindig anytime soon, slap this on and watch people lose their minds trying to moonwalk without falling over. Then there’s “The ABC’s Of Love (Long),” because apparently one dose of alphabet soup wasn’t enough. This extended cut lets the synths stretch their legs a bit more, giving listeners time to recover from all the high-octane euphoria before hitting them again with another round of earworm goodness. Is it necessary? Not really. But sometimes life calls for excess, and this track delivers just that—like ordering an extra-large pizza even though you’re eating alone. What makes these tracks unforgettable is how shamelessly fun they are. There’s no pretentiousness here, no deep philosophical musings about love or loss. Nope, this is pure escapism wrapped in shiny production values. Listening to it feels like stepping into a time machine set to "good vibes only." And let’s be real: who doesn’t need a little slice of cheesy '80s bliss now and then? In hindsight, The ABCs of Love might not change your life, but it’ll definitely make your playlist sparkle brighter than a disco ball after too many tequila shots. Honestly, I think C. Shore and B. Orlando knew exactly what they were doing—crafting something so gloriously unapologetic that it borders on ridiculous. But maybe that’s the point. After all, isn’t music supposed to remind us not to take ourselves too seriously? Final thought: If aliens ever invade Earth and demand proof of human creativity, I’d toss them this album. Then sit back and hope they don’t ask for anything else.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a fun fact: The album *The ABCs Of Love* by Wow, released in 1984, is a hidden gem in the electronic music scene. It’s got this super high-energy vibe, thanks to its Hi NRG style. What’s cool is that it only has two tracks—both versions of the same song, one shorter and one longer. Produced by B. Orlando and written by C. Shore, it’s like they took a single idea and stretched it into an entire project. Kind of wild, right?
