Always felt the title track should have been a stand alone 12 inch. The rest of the album was lush and romantic. So the title track was jaunting.
The cover should have been from the Town & Country photo session. [[Like the cover of the RCA Greatest Hits). A fake tiger looked cheap.

That said, both "Eaten Alive" and "Chain Reaction" were hits internationally. [["Chain Reaction" hit #1 across Europe & Australia). Making the album a Top 15-20 sellers in many territories. It was the album that defined her international sales stronger than her domestic sales.

The videos were arguably the best of all of her albums.

The video for the title track was far superior to the actual song, but all in all this was generally a very good album that just falls short of being an excellent one. A highlight from her 80's period for sure.
