Wow, I get sick and miss about 11dy6 songs...
Okay, so to catch up:
Photograph - Ok, I admit it, I LOVED this song and the whole album. Rock Of Ages was a bit more of a favorite, but there wasn't a bad track on the album. Good "set the wayback machine" song.
Street of Dreams - Good song, and I admit that I had a HUGE crush on JLT at the time.
Let's Dance - I LOVE THIS SONG. I don't care who knows it either. I will admit that this song reminds me a lot of Frank Zappa's song "Be In My Video", especially the line
I'll make you wear red shoes! I also liked Blue Jean, China Girl, Modern Love and Cat People (Putting Out Fire). The album was not only a huge push for Stevie Ray Vaughan (RIP) but it put Bowie back on the map too. Hah--jamming on this song right now!
If This Is It - This one was a bit overplayed when it was a hit. I'm more of a fan of The Heart Of Rock And Roll and Bad Is Bad.
Family Man - Good song, but Maneater blows this one out of the water. Hell, Sara Smile blows BOTH of them out of the water. BUT--I've always loved their harmonies.
Burning Down The House - OMG OMG OMG!! Ok, sorry. This song and video are just. SO. DAMN. COOL! It also helps that a good friend of mine in high school made a parody of this one, Burning Down The School.
Good memories right here with this one.
Uptown Girl - Never one of my favorites. It IS better live though. BUT--I'd rather have Captain Jack, Scenes From An Italian Restaurant or Big Shot over this one.
Girls Girls Girls -
This doesn't hold a candle to the Shout At The Devil album. NEXT...
Just Like Heaven - Didn't like The Cure at first, same with Depeche Mode, The Psychedelic Furs and Tears For Fears, but I gained an appreciation for all of them later. Great song. Video's ok too.
Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) - NO. Just... no. Anything from Escape back is great, much past Escape is sketchy IMO. Next...
OH, I'm caught up again.
