Sobre el álbum
El tercer álbum de estudio del dúo, Ready for Romance, de 1986, representa la cima absoluta de su popularidad durante su primera etapa. Con este trabajo Modern Talking perfeccionó su fórmula hasta el extremo, entregando una colección de éxitos que los consolidó como el mayor fenómeno del pop europeo del momento. Este disco es un ejemplo perfecto de su arrollador dominio.
Este álbum contiene dos de sus canciones más legendarias y reconocibles a nivel mundial: "Brother Louie" y "Atlantis Is Calling (S.O.S. for Love)". Ambos temas son la quintaesencia de su estilo: ritmos de baile sencillos, sintetizadores omnipresentes y estribillos en falsete increíblemente pegadizos. La banda demostró una capacidad asombrosa para fabricar hits de manera consecutiva.
El resto del álbum mantiene el mismo patrón, con canciones que siguen fielmente la exitosa plantilla creada por Dieter Bohlen. "Ready for Romance" es la fotografía del dúo en su momento más dulce, un trabajo que, junto a otros de la misma época como "Let's Talk About Love" o "In the Middle of Nowhere", define a la perfección el sonido y el éxito de Modern Talking en los 80.
