It's a keeper.
Enjoyed listening to it.
I reckon there are several posters who would think that chorus IS our club theme song. :P

Perhaps there should be Nick's-Aid version? All proceeds could go to troll rehabilitation.

I'd forgotten about this gem until I heard it on telly the other day. I also didn't realise it was Toto's first single (according to the uploader's notes).

3 dog night doing a Randy Newman track:

& bought a CD of Van Walker to replace a CD that someone stole from my desk a couple of years ago at work:

Lovely listening on the new speakers :D :D

Some GnR

Back in the day I preferred Bon Jovi to GnR. I still like the Bon but when you go back and listen, Guns n Roses did some damn fine work. Perfect mesh of some serious talent, utterly unstable and destined to fall apart but while they were together, damn.

If there was a better band that started in the 80's, I don't know who it was.

I'll take The Pixies over any of those.
