    Lyrics:
    Well I'm walking in my sleep
    Well I'm talking baby can't you see
    Well all we need is a simple song
    For people that wanna dance
    All we need is a simple song
    So people let me hear you say
    Na na na na na
    It's not your situation
    I just need contemplation over you
    I'm not so systematic
    It's just that I'm an addict for your love

    Been trying to figure out WHY this song is so perfect. Is it the melancholic vibe? The groove, the interesting chord progression? The vocal performance? The engineering? The guitar solo? The arrangement? The lyrics? I think the fact that those are all contenders is what makes it so good. Every aspect is spot on.

      its a perfectly executed and perfectly written song by the masters who played on all your favorite songs of the 70's and 80's. I think the real cherry on top though is that crescendo that happens at the end of the first chorus and the end of the song with that perfectly executed bass drum that you NEED to hear.

      Want an example of a good band thats on the new side? Greta Van Fleet. Want another? Look at Mac DeMarco. Tool is pretty good too, though they're 2000s. Tame Impala is pretty damn good too.
      Look it up yourself. Don't just say "lol the kids are stupid."
      Hell, boomers (the "best generation" apparently) raised the newer gens. If anything, they should be better, unless you're saying boomers are a failure and did a shit job at raising their kids.

      Eric Ben'et did a version in 1999, with Faith Evans on the chorus. Almost 20yrs after the original. His was a little more RnB with a heavier bass kick. More house party vibe. I like both the original and the remake. That piano in the original is killer though. We have to steer the younger generation toward old school music. So they know that a lot of today's artists sample from the classics. My kids range in age from 25 to 12. I expose them to the classics, 60's, 70's, 80's on through the 90's.

    It wasn’t until I was older when I recognized just how technically proficient this band was. There are a few bands that are this way. Steely Dan is one. Sade is another.

    Steve's voice is one of my favourites out of all their voices, I think it is because the first time I heard Toto, he was singing and when `I hear his voice it is Toto, the distinction in his voice is very subtle but suits this song perfectly. The whole band is individually a master class in their own right but together they have a sound that is timeless and I am so glad I grew up to this!

      ToTo has a sound all their own. I first had Classic back in h.s. It’s just such a great song and with Cheryl Lynn singing her part it’s even better. I really think that music from the 60’s-80’s era is the greatest era of music ever recorded.

    I always felt Toto's genius was great players serving the song and nobody overplaying. Certain bands have skilled players that felt like every song was a talent show. Anyone in this band could be first call session players, yet nobody stood out. Intentionally imo. Made for really, really great songs.
