    This was an amazing song combining two powerful vocalists.
    Heart wasn’t doing a lot around this time, but about a year later they shot back into the stratosphere with the self titled album Heart.

    I met Mike Reno a few years back at a concert a friend of mine was promoting. Loverboy was the headliner. Mike was very polite and humble. I told him his voice was spot on like 40 years ago. He told me the reason his voice was still mostly intact was because he basically quit singling for 3 decades and got a normal job. 😂 I guess he had plenty of of rest.

      I saw them in 2017, and was absolutely amazed that Mike could still hit that high note about a minute in to “Turn Me Loose”.

    Mike Reno is the lead singer of Loverboy Angela.

    Loverboy actually has a song on the Top Gun soundtrack that rivals this duet ! It’s called “ in your eyes “

    One of the best movie soundtracks ever.
    Footloose, Fame, Breakfast Club and Top Gun are my favorite movie soundtracks ever

      Well, Ann’s absolutely a legend, and Reno is a damn good singer in his own right, he’s pretty close to Steve Perry/Jimi Jamison level.

    Patty Smythe and Don Henleys Sometimes love just ain't enough, was and awesome Duet. Also Don Henley and Trisha Yearwood, Walk Away Joe, featuring Mathew Mcaughnehy. Probably a misspell, but two great duets!

    So many don’t watch the whole reaction. She looked up Mike Reno and read that he’s the singer for Loverboy. She even sang some “Working for the Weekend”. Great reaction!

    Written by Eric Carmen and Dean Pitchford, who is the writer of the movie 🎥 Footloose. He and Kenny Loggins wrote Footloose,
    the song 🎵. Produced by the late Keith Olsen, RIP. He was 1 of the producers for Journey and Rock Springfield.
    Loverboy started in Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦 but later moved to Metro Vancouver. The most played song is Working for the Weekend. The other highly played song is Turn Me Loose. The late Bruce Fairbairn, RIP, was the producer for the hit albums as Bob Rock was the engineer.
    Chas Sanford on rhythm guitar 🎸 in the soundtrack version. Also in 1984, he, Mark Leonard and John Waite wrote Missing You.
    3 years earlier, Waite rejected 😖 the music of Open Arms, written by them fellow Babys 👶 member Jonathan Cain. But Missing You more than made up for that song 🎵. In 1991, the 2 and Ricky Phillips reunited as they, Neal Schon and Deen Castronovo formed Bad English.
    I was in Vancouver each year Loverboy released a major album. We never crossed paths! 😥
    Go ahead and listen to Loverboy, The Babys 👶, John Waite a d Bad English.

    I've always loved this song and it's played in one of my favorite scenes from the original Footloose (1984)! Mike Reno sang lead in the Canadian rock band, Loverboy! Fun fact: Footloose was loosely based on a true story of a town where dancing was not allowed.💖💖

    Powerful ballad this one well performed. I have seen Footloose ( the original )and this sounded familiar. I think the Title track by Kenny Loggins is my favourite-Colin Ward

    My song when I really fell in love for the first time in my teens. Somewhat Unrequited. She ended up batting for the other team. We almost got there but didn't. 😂. Still firends after all these years though.

    Footloose!, I think Anne Wilson DID, take the song over, but you can tell she toned it down. Quite frankly, I've always thought it should have been a solo. I also wondered what a duet between her and Freddie Mercury would have gone.
