Welcome to the Pleasuredome is the title of the fourth single from Frankie Goes to Hollywood, released in 1985. It is taken from the album of same name. The lyrics of the track "Welcome To The Pleasuredome" were inspired by the 56-line poem Kubla Khan, written by English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The "Welcome To The Pleasuredome" was the first release by the band not to hit top spot on the UK singles chart. Although it only reached Number 2, being kept off top spot by the Phil Collins - Philip Bailey duet "Easy Lover", "Pleasuredome" spent a total of 11 weeks in the chart. The intro to the 12" mixes included a spoken word introduction by the actor Geoffrey Palmer. The video, by Bernard Rose, feature the band stealing a car, going to a carnival and encountering all manner of "pleasureable" activities. The audio soundtrack of the video was included as a track on the cassette single.
