Count Three & Pray, by the new wave band Berlin, peaked at No. 61 on Billboard 200 and featured the hit single Take My Breath Away, which was featured in the film Top Gun. A major change of direction for Berlin, Count Three & Pray was an artistic triumph but a commercial disappointment. After making a name for itself playing very European-sounding synth pop, the L.A. trio recruited producer Bob Ezrin (known for his work with Alice Cooper and others) and unveiled a more hard-edged, guitar-oriented sound. From the rockin' Trash (which features none other than Ted Nugent -- the last person one would expect to work with Berlin!) to the ballad Pink and Velvet (a tale of two heroin addicts' romance that is as poignant as it is disturbing), Count Three & Pray leaves no doubt just how much lead singer Terri Nunn and her colleagues were enjoying this radical change.
