I don't know how this song wasn't a worldwide #1 hit. I'm from Canada where no one has heard of Carola and I found this on UA-cam several years ago but I keep listening to it. One of my favorite songs and that whole Runaway album is amazing.
I just think the same. I understand that this record was planned to put Carola on a global scale, at least in occidental Europe and other countries, if USA wouldnt had been kind to her. But it would have been amazing too if she broke the US market. I guess there was so little promotion of the record, I dont know why. For me it's terrific and shows the talents of the Gibb Twins. I think too that the market were not very kind to them, so there is that thing too. Most Gibb written songs deserved to be hits.
It was intended to become Carola's international breakthrough, but for record company priority reasons or whatever, it fell through. I am Swedish and loved this record when it came out in '86.
People seem to forget that there were a metric ton of different talents out there at that time and she would also be competing against alot of different genres which were very prevalent at that time and multiplying like ripples on the water so even if the song was good it might not be what the rock, synth, rap or what have you fan would have liked.
@@jgreen7027 I actually think "Brand New Heart" would've had a better chance of cracking the Top 40 in the US. That's a stellar song. It's just as good as other slow, pop ballads of the mid-80s.

0.22 what is she doing on that chair?
The pitch seems different from the album version. Does this sound sped up to anybody?
yeah it’s slightly too fast and it’s pitched up as a result. kinda weird
@@ExperimentIV Figured that. I was thinking there were 2 different versions of the song.
Jag gillade denna låten då det begav sig, nu hör jag bara hur barnsligt/skrikig hennes röst låter men gillar låten ändå:)
Den går lite för fort = tonhöjden är högre. så här ska den låta. ua-cam.com/video/qpDjAwiVVZ0/v-deo.html

"Lost in the crowd" is my absolute favorite but this is probably number two.
