Although the 1980s was a time of great change in the English Music scene (as well as in the country) there was still plenty of room for more traditional types of music and this song (and others like it by American Rock Bands) were very popular.
I remember hearing this song on Radio 1 as I travelled to school in the morning sandwiched between the likes of ‘Yazoo’,’OMD’ and ‘The Human League’ and thinking that it was a great song. I have this song on my ipod at the moment and I listen to it often.
There is a simplicity and simple message to this song, which makes it stand out, and the melody and delivery are exceptional. If there is one thing that the Americans do really well it is produce big power ballads like this one and this is one of the best examples…
Listen to the song….
