You get it all here and Anthem is mostly a delight. There's hot and cold running pop songs (the dynamic "Demolition Men" and "We Are"), atmospheric, mellow numbers ("Jungles of Jupiter" and "I Am"), the big chart hits ("I Want To Be Free" and "It's A Mystery" - a song Toyah hated apparently) and the annoyingly bizarre ("Elocution Lesson").Toyah sings of aliens, the supernatural, androids, Orwellian societies, suburban boredom and everything in between all resolutely encased in her rich, esoteric imagery. I loved it as a rebellious 15 year old and now as a more settled 34 year old I'm loving it only slightly less. Toyah held the spirit of post-punk 1980's in her florid word play, fantastic universes, sometimes nihilistic prophecies and daring individualism.On this CD you get some great extra tracks including For You (previously only available on a flexi-disc with Flexipop magazine) and Alien which she originally recorded as 9 To 5 and credited to The Maneaters in Derek Jarman's film 'Jubilee'. As it is the new millenium you also get a video of the Godley & Crème clip to I Want To Be Free to play on your computer. Anthem represents a time and mood, and as such, succeeds completely. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Part 1: Toyah's commercial breakthrough, but at what cost *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2006* Toyah was the flavor of the year in 1981. She worked hard to achieve the success she obtained during this year, but it was with some of her far less enduring music. Toyah hit the charts with the remarkably painful and forgettable 'It's A Mystery', then followed the success with the weak teenage rebellion anthem, 'I Want To Be Free'. While this did bring her a new legion of young fans, it may have alienated those who had been following Toyah up to this point, or even warded off others who would have appreciated this album for the excellent music surrounding those forgettable singles.While the singles released from Anthem appear to be crass chart geared blandness, much of the album is a winner. 'Obsolete' is a great, powerful song that would fit nicely on any early Siouxsie and the Banshees album. 'Jungles Of Jupiter' and 'I Am' show more mid-tempo successes, while 'Masai Boy' and 'Pop Star' display a more experimental side.Anthem is presented on this CD version with a number of essential bonus tracks, including the tribal thrill of 'War Boys' and the catchy quirkiness of 'Alien'. In a bit of dated technology, the decision was made by the record company to opt for including a music video on the CD at the sacrifice of providing a detailed booklet, so save your lyric insert from the vinyl issue.Anthem was remastered entirely from original studio master tapes in the HDCD format. And while the sound is very good, it is a bit loud and compressed, but not near as bad as what's becoming the norm. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/44224163-anthem](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/44224163-anthem) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
