Various Artists "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the '80s Vol.11"

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the '80s is a series of compilations issued by Rhino Records, on both CD and audio cassette, featuring various artists from the new wave era 1977–1985.

The series contained 15 volumes. The first five were released on 21 June 1994, volumes 6–10 on 18 October 1994, and the last five volumes on 20 June 1995.

The Romantics "Talking In Your Sleep (Single & Video)"

"Talking in Your Sleep" is a chart-topping hit song by Detroit rock band The Romantics. It was a #3 U.S. hit in early 1984 and became a UK hit in August that year for British band Bucks Fizz. It ultimately became a hit throughout the world, and was the group's most successful song.

The song appeared on the Romantics' 1983 album In Heat and was the Romantics' biggest chart hit, garnering substantial radio airplay and a million in US 45 RPM single sales.

The song reached #3 - where it held for three weeks - on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1984. It also went to #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart, as well as hitting the top of Billboard's Album Rock Tracks chart.

In Australia, "Talking in Your Sleep" climbed to #14 on the Australian Singles Chart (Kent Music Report)


It featured in the first episode of season two of Netflix sci-fi drama Stranger Things, playing on a car radio.

The song's music video, widely aired at the time on MTV and elsewhere, featured the band performing while surrounded by standing, but seemingly sleeping women who were dressed in lingerie, pajamas, and other sleepwear.
