    One of the very best songs by REO Speedwagon back in the day...In my humble opinion, the 1980's was the absolute peak of musical expression that will stand the test of time, and will entertain future generations, long after we are gone...

    Wow, the memories! This was “our song”, I was 10 years older than my boyfriend... after hearing the words in this song I’m sure you can guess why it meant something to us. In 1984, it was unheard of for a female to be that much older than the man, you know the “double standard “ thing. Well anyway, we celebrated our 34th wedding anniversary this year, we fooled everyone & have never regretted it for one minute!
    By the way, this was a crappy video, lol!

    Hey, Jamel, thanks for all the listens.
    "Roll with the Changes" from REO is a good one, "Take It on the Run," and "Time for Me to Fly."
    So, getting back to the Andrews Sisters era and a bit beyond, you have to check out the Benny Goodman version of "Sing, Sing, Sing" and Louis Prima's "Jump, Jive, and Wail."
    If you've never heard the Staples Singers, "I'll Take You There" is iconic, and "Let's Do It Again."
    You might like Bachman Turner Overdrive "Takin' Care of Business" and "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet."
    Check out some Cream "White Room," "Tales of Brave Ulysses," "I Feel Free," "I'm So Glad."
    I'll stop there for now. Don't mean to overwhelm; it's just hard to get your ear when you've become popular.

    Jamel! I’ve attended 105 REO Speedwagon concerts since “78” and I’m still attending and their still touring, for almost 50 years now and they STILL ROCK! I know the band members personally, past and present! I can break down any REO song they ever made. Now let’s get to the really great tunes! “Golden Country” great tune and it has stood the test of time. Unfortunately NOT in a good way, since the lyrics are still relevant almost 50 years later, but should NOT be! Then let’s ROCK to Roll With The Changes! Hit me up, I can answer all your REO questions 😉

REO Speedwagon is an iconic group from my youth i had the opportunity to bring my son to see them when they came back to our area a couple years ago. He just loved seeing them . The last time they were in our area was way back when they first started out with the group Canned Heat. My brother who was 2 years older than me got to see them then and now my son had the honor of seeing them first hand. Great music from a great group also a great reaction. PEACE OUT.

The video clearly showed you the Journey of this one man going through his life and pointing out that there was this one special person that provided him with the Heart and Soul that he needed to SURVIVE.. That's why there was a candle in the window on a cold Winter's night cuz that's what he felt in his soul he was in the middle of a cold winter all alone..And then he saw the candle In The Window & Realized that somebody truly cared for him 100%.

    Two different music videos exist for the song. Both videos have been shown at various times on VH1 Classic (now known as MTV Classic).
    Version 1: Studio (videotape) Edit
    The videotaped version was produced by MTV for a special on REO Speedwagon and features the band in the studio. It begins with Kevin Cronin playing the piano, attempting to find the key in which he can best sing the song (starting off in G major, he later decides he can sing it better in A). After Cronin exchanges some laughs with his bandmates, the original track of the song plays, with the band members miming their respective parts. It concludes with Cronin uttering the line, "That warmed the cockles of my cockles!"
    Version 2: Film Edit
    The second more famous version, directed by John Jopson, was considered a "more professional one" and makes various references to the life-cycle and shows the band singing the song.

    I remember I used to be in love with this girl in my teen years. I used to lay in the dark thinking about her with this song. I still love this song. I'm a romantic. 🤷‍♂️
