notes
A slow-swelling wall of detuned saw pad underpins the entire chorus, giving the theme its fantasy-film scale; the long attack and generous hall reverb push it far back in the mix behind Limahl's vocal and the arpeggiated countermelody. It is a wider, softer relative of the tighter Electric Dreams pad from the same year.
