We've got the full tracklisting and preorder links below for Thief of Hearts, due this Friday. Thief of Hearts has been freshly remastered by Chas Ferry. Varese's new reissue includes, in addition to the Dance Mix of Melissa Manchester's title song, two additional bonus tracks: the 1985 re-recorded single version and the special remixed version of 'Love in the Shadows.' Joe's notes in the eight-page color booklet feature new quotes from Manchester, whose latest album, The Fellas, was released last fall. Faltermeyer and Moroder would also team for Bruckheimer and Simpson's film Top Gun in 1986, whose soundtrack of course included the Oscar-winning 'Take My Breath Away' performed by Berlin. Faltermeyer's 'Axel F' would become a huge hit as would 'The Heat is On,' performed by Glenn Frey from the soundtrack. However, Bruckheimer, Simpson and Faltermeyer would quickly rebound when, around two months later, Beverly Hills Cop was released. Thief of Hearts did not become a hit at the box office and, other than the title song, the music did not make much a dent on the charts. Annabella Lwin, who had departed her lead singer role with Bow Wow Wow at this point, would contribute 'Passion Play.' Anderson would also perform the vocals for Moroder's theme to The NeverEnding Story in 1984. Other tracks and artists on the album include E.G Daily (who would appear in Pee Wee's Big Adventure the next year) with 'Love in the Shadows' and 'Just Imagine (Way Beyond Fear)' from Beth Anderson and Joe 'Bean' Esposito. The Dance Mix which hit the latter chart is included as one of the bonus tracks on the new reissue. It became another hit for Manchester when it hit the Hot 100 and went to the Top 20 on the AC and Dance charts. The synthpop-flavored 'Thief of Hearts' continued the sound that Manchester had begun in her final years at Arista (chronicled on last year's complete singles compilation Through the Eyes of Love from Second Disc Records and Real Gone Music). The soundtrack album was anchored by the vocal version of Moroder's theme performed and co-written by Melissa Manchester. The eventual album preserved five cuts of his music. A pioneer of electronic music, Faltermeyer would utilize that style for his score. The rest of the score would be written by Moroder's longtime collaborator Harold Faltermeyer. He would, however, only compose the main theme for the film. Hoping to replicate that success, they turned to Giorgio Moroder, who composed the score to Flashdance, for this new film.

The movie was produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson, who had a huge hit the previous year with Flashdance at the box office and also on the charts with its smash theme song performed by Irene Cara. Cheers' George Wendt also has a supporting role. The two soon begin an affair which leads to complications with Ray and Scott's criminal partner Buddy, portrayed by David Caruso, and the situation leads to a deadly confrontation at the end. After inadvertently stealing Mickey's private journals among the other possessions, he becomes infatuated and decides to insinuate himself into her life by posing as a client who needs his apartment redecorated. The film starred newcomer Steven Bauer as Scott, a burglar who breaks into the home of married couple Mickey (Barbara Williams) and Ray (John Getz). This new edition has been expanded by three bonus tracks and features new liner notes written by our very own Joe Marchese. The album's only prior release on CD was back during its original release and only in Germany, at that. This Friday, January 12 , Varese Sarabande is reissuing the long-out-of-print soundtrack album to 1984's thriller Thief of Hearts.
