      ​@magicae 37 You're right. After 87 it sort of stopped. There were some good songs but few and far between. From what I can recall all the great 80s music was from 80 to 85. 86 to 87 there were some good stuff but then it stopped.

And now as our families are growing older. Our kids go to college and break out on their own we realize we’ve crossed that line. The best times are behind us.

    This is an all-time classic song. Tina Turner did the female cover to this song. Many years ago I missed seeing him perform at the "Wolf Den" at Mohegan Sun Casino. I had tickets to a concert there that had Kansas, Journey, and another famous band which I think was Styx. I remember going to the concert because I wanted to hear Dennis DeYoung. Unfortunately I did not know he was no longer with Styx. After the concert was over, I learned that John had been playing in the "Wolf Den". I would have preferred listening to John than the 3 bands I saw playing that night. Several years later, I saw John at another concert. He was great.

      ​@@abelesser69 That's right, first he was a member of the Babys group, then they separated and he continued solo .... later he was part of the group Bad English with 2 albums, later when that project ended, he continued his solo career again.

    Damn good voice. I met him in 2007 and he signed every single album I had and let me record his show that evening. Seriously good man ❤️

    Wow, what a treat this is. The accent, personality along with some small talk. How many yrs later after this song first came out.
