Those young ladies doing the back ground vocals were top notch, and would add 5 stars to any band whom they worked with. The lead vocalist hit notes effortlessly that I could only dream of.

I score it better than the original for two reasons...1.it has an outstandingly tight and perfrectly amplified base line and second...the background singers have angelic voices, with perfect tones that add immensly to the compositionl. I think the vocal lead is very, very good and is to be commended. I would give a slight edge to the original vocal in Lou Graham...Superb job men and women...you are on my playlist !..your compositions are remarkable indeed. !!! Dana

I've seen most the great bands live when parking was free, tickets were $8.00 and tee-shirts were ten bucks. From Bad company, Van Halen, white snake, foreigner, guns and roses, ACDC, Sammy Hager, Journey, and literally hundreds more great bands. During the Renaissance period country music was great, pop was great, rock n roll was great, Motown was great. All music genres were great. God thank you for putting me on the earth during those days.

    Those backup singers are out of this world. Lead vocal is superb. What a great cover band

    The girls are not only beautiful, but their back-up harmonies are spectacular. And yes, the dude has a very good voice.

      They are still together. So yes maybe they are proud.

    I was 18 when this song came out and dating my first love. Listened to this song at least 500 times in the 80s. In my humble opinion this LLB version is a great tribute to the original. I honestly prefer it over the Foreigner versions. Great job guys. Nailed it again!

    This group is fantastic. Their discipline and totally crisp accuracy performing this song is astonishing. I don't think there is any other group on the internet that comes close to the accuracy of playing this song. I can't find a misstep of any note in the piece. Congrats on an excellent performance.!

      "Totally crisp accuracy"? Apparently you don't realize that this is not a single live take of the song. It is pasted together from portions of several separate attempts.

    この曲が流行っていた1979年から4年間、アメリカで学生していつも独りで食事、独りで夕焼けも夜更け迎えていた、そんな20代前半の自分を思い出さずにはいられない曲です。みんな頑張るんだよ!
