Mr. Mister's two biggest hits, "Broken Wings" and "Kyrie," are both found this album, which automatically makes it a good one. However, it only has 10 songs and lasts about 43 minutes. Overall, the album isn't too bad, if you're looking for an 80s techno pop/rock sound. If you're not, then you might consider something else, unless all you want is just their two previously mentioned biggest hits.
I have a son named because of the song “Kyrie”. It was popular when I was looking for a name that started with a “K”. My first son heard the song and suggested the name. I loved the song and the name. After listening to this cd I highly recommend it to anyone who grew up in the 80’s. Mr. Mister’s songs from the album can still be heard on thre radio today.

I love this CD, and I knew in the mid-80s that this group featured amazing players from different genres of music. It is a sentimental favorite for me, and while it frames the mid-80s sound perfectly, the compositions are timeless and hold their own decades later.
Five stars, two thumbs WAY up...Mr. Mister's 1985 "Welcome to the Real World" is one of those rare '80s triumphs that still appeal to a wide audience today. You know "Broken Wings" and "Kyrie", but you may not know "Uniform of Youth", "Don't Slow Down", "Is It Love" and "Tangent Tears", which were every bit as "single-worthy" as their better-known works. "Black/White", "Run to Her" and the title track round out the LP. Richard Page's best work; easily equal to the best from Toto, The Fixx, Robert Plant, etc are on this album, and these day's it's inexpensive enough that there's just no excuse not to have it in your collection.
One to bring out the young side, if it can be found before the C D ends.

This band was one of my all time favorite as the music is so unique and so upbeat and just fun to listen to over and over again. One does not get tired of listening to their music and each song has its own sound thats one of a kind. If you have never heard this whole CD than you should give it a try its well worth it and very well be become your favorite as well....
If there was an anthem for 80's rock Mr Mister deserves to be on the pedestal above all the rest.

This is probably not a good album for me to review because I never really cared for Mr. Mister and their particular brand of 80's pop/rock. I know that tons of bands were influenced by this album and ironically many Christian bands really dug it. Go pick up some Vector or DeGarmo and Key and you'll see what I mean. So here I am writing a review because this CD happened to come across my desk and I'm thinking what do people see in this? I'm sure there's something that I'm missing but I can't find it.
thanks 🙋♂️
