Welcome to the Pleasuredome

~ Release by Frankie Goes to Hollywood (see all versions of this release, 33 available)

Annotation

The track list on the cover art is not accurate. It only shows 16 tracks, but there are 17 and the start and end times do not match the actual times read by a CD player. In addition, several of the track titles are wrong.

The notes on this Discogs release explain some of the history, although it only lists 16 tracks so it is not a perfect match for this release: https://www.discogs.com/Frankie-Goes-To-Hollywoo….

Due to this confusion, the track titles match the recording titles rather than the incorrectly printed cover art.
