Aldo Nova - Fantasy


What can you say about Aldo Nova and the song Fantasy an early 80's pop metal classic except that it is a guilty pleasure? A crossover hit that went to number 25 in the pop charts it has hooks, synthesizers, good guitar riffs and a catchy chorus. Sure he writes and produces songs for the likes of Celine Dion now (a fellow Canadian) but what is a one hit wonder to do? I should point out that his first record went platinum and his second went gold so he technically isn't a one hit wonder although I think you would be hard pressed to find anyone who knows another song by him.
