You like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

Watching old Huey Lewis videos really gives you an appreciation of the budgetary considerations studios were under back in the day. "Guy's, we got the SAG extras for the whole day, we got similar sets, we got wardrobe, let's knock out 'New Drug' and 'Happy to be Stuck With You' today."
Huey you will probably never see this.I sang this years ago in a cover band that was successful.I'm going to bring it back to my Trio I have and dedicate it to you.Thanks for all the great memories Huey.
He has a lot great songs for many years. What to see him in concert but he had to cancel the concert because he lost ear in is inter ear. So that’s why he had to cancelled the concert.
"I Want a New Drug," with its killer guitar riff (courtesy of Chris Hayes), is the album's centerpiece - not only is it the greatest antidrug song ever written, it's also a personal statement about how the band has grown up, shucked off their bad-boy image and learned to become more adult. Hayes' solo on it is incredible and the drum machine used, but not credited, gives not only "I Want a New Drug" but most of the album a more consistent backbeat than any of the previous albums - even though Bill Gibson is still a welcome presence.
@@ol4037 No, not really. It was really my brother who got me a res at Dorisa. You see, I had vowed to get a reservation at Dorsia one day (if not during that calendar year, then at least before I'm thirty). Last time I called Dorsia someone actually hung up on me even before I got to ask, "Well, if not next month, how about January?" I thought about trying to get a reservation for Sean's birthday, but the energy I would have to spend attempting this feat wasn't worth wasting on him. Besides, I thought Dorsia was far too chic for him. So anyway, Sean called me at five from the Racquet Club and tells me to meet him at Dorsia. He had just talked to Brin, the owner, and reserved a table at nine. My mind was a mess. I didn't know what to think or how to feel. How could he get a reservation just like that? What made it even worse was that the maitre d' refuses to seat me until my brother arrived. My worst fear had become a reality. A prime booth across from the bar sat there, empty, waiting for Sean to grace it with his presence. My rage was controlled, barely, by a Xanax and an Absolut on the rocks. Let's just say I was on the verge of tears. While having dinner with him I wondered if it would be too late to ask the waitresses to bring a piece of cake over with a birthday candle, just to embarrass the crap out of Sean, to put that little bastard in his place - but I decided against it.
I must admit, they do have exceptional sea urchin ceviche, and the lobster with caviar and peach ravioli is great.

The 80’s were just natural. And it was way more conservative than it is now. Nowadays people are too focused on the cringe and too scared to be cringy while it only results in more cringe cause you can’t uphold to contain a unnatural attitude or behavior that goes in against natural feelings of confidence and even slight inconvenience. Nowadays there are also too many malicious forces being active to scam everything considered weak and having its guard down. Considering kindness for weakness nowadays is gaining more popularity among the ignorant ones (that also means among the ones who consider themselves to be highly intellectual).
I will admit, I never really followed Huey Lewis in the 80s, more Human League and Kraftwerk, but hearing this I realise they are great. Lots of energy and life. Good stuff.
It was for me, too. I decided I was going to add this to my morning routine when I was a kid. I put a bunch of ice in my bathroom sink and filled it with water and, before I could even get my face in the water, my mom came around the corner, saw what I was doing, and started yelling at me for wasting ice and I started crying. It didn't go anything like I had envisioned.
This is my favorite song of theirs. Love the video as well. He was just too cool. The song itself is like a drug. It so upbeat. I sure do miss the 80’s.

Awesome as usual. Met Huey in a “Meet and Greet” USAA Christmas Dance in San Antonio, Texas. Yes it was a “Christmas Dance”, Remember...you were there.. Lol
I was 32 when this song came out. I was living my best life. I worked in an art gallery, I had a sculpture studio and I was producing art. I was exhibiting my art in galleries, and selling my work too. I was wining cash award grants, which allowed me to buy a brand new 1985 Honda Elite 150cc, scooter. I drove it safely for 33 years, and traveled 14,000 miles on it. It is 2023, and I'm 70.

Well, Huey, the pharmaceutical research field is a very complex one. Even if we knew the compounds that could create the desired effect, we still have years of trials, studies, and eventually FDA certification before this new medication might be available.
or just send it out after like two trials like the covid vaccine. who cares if it kills antibodies and sends people to the ER just get the vaccine lmaooooooo
Any Huey song is great while driving, turn up the volume real loud & you just may find people singing with you.... or they'll think you're just crazy. Let's go Huey!

Huey Lewis & The News are a pure rock & roll band. They sound fantastic in concert and are great guys as well. No lip syncing and no "autotune". They acapella as good as any of them, too.
As a teenager, I was watching this video on TV with my dad. He was a loud dresser and he loved the red suit. He decided to have one custom-made for $500. We buried him in it in 1992.
Sorry for your loss. At the same time though this made me smile. Your dad sounded like a brilliant man with an equally brilliant fashion sense!! He was buried in style
Thank you UA-cam and internet, Huey had the best damn music videos.
Absolutely.
Huey is unfortunately far too underrated, he has a fantastic voice and excellent lyric writing talent.
He was on the tip top in the 80s so I don’t know how underrated that is
He’s in the best movie ever too. He’s under the radar legendary
He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

What made Huey Lewis and the News stand apart was the Tower of Power horn section. Part of one of the greatest rhythm section to ever exist.

Ghostbusters is the ripoff
RemoteAbductionArm I know that I was confused of how you word it I wasn't sure which one you were saying was the rip off
0:59 landscape has something magical, reminds me of Sundays mornings. Beautiful in a weird sense.
0:44 MOST 80S THING EVER

Man that girl is fire
Every single thing from the 80s just out 80s the next.
I wish I could've heard him live. I really think his music was so quintessential to the 80s
I MISS THE 80'S!
Reminds me of a bar I worked in the early 80's in San Antonio. And a girl..
Chicks in the 80’s were smoking! 💯
This song just randomly popped in my head today for some reason. Still just as fun of a song to listen to after all these years.
What a perfect song
Any Huey song is great while driving, turn up the volume real loud & you just may find people singing with you.... or they'll think you're just crazy. Let's go Huey!
Huey Lewis has great driving songs ! 👍⛽😎🎵🔊
Having a HLATN morning. Just found out he is having hearing problems. May God heal and bless this national treasure.
GHOSTBUSTERS!!!
This group had hit after hit back in the day. I miss the 1980s!

That BASS 👏👏👏👏
Huey Lewis & The News are a pure rock & roll band. They sound fantastic in concert and are great guys as well. No lip syncing and no "autotune". They acapella as good as any of them, too.
The Drug.... Is life.
Yesssssss
As a teenager, I was watching this video on TV with my dad. He was a loud dresser and he loved the red suit. He decided to have one custom-made for $500. We buried him in it in 1992.
Sorry for your loss. At the same time though this made me smile. Your dad sounded like a brilliant man with an equally brilliant fashion sense!! He was buried in style
Your dad was a badass for doing that.
thats beautiful
Awesome.. He did his own thing!
Yea good times for sure ,excellent band ,huey, the best
