I am a big fan of Billy Squire. He was different from the others of the time because he wore no make up or fancy clothes, and he could dance, but didn't make a show of it. His voice is distinctive and his songs are something that I want to listen to more than thirty years later.

@Jgeneraledger23 Жыл бұрын
This song got tons of airplay back then, so it might as well have been Top-40. Most of Billy's songs were very popular, if it truly didn't make the Top-40, it was because Billy didn't release it as a single.

When ya sound THIS GOOD all the time, there's no need for any "visuals" to sell their product: their sound, their excellent musical performance IS the show! I love how they KNEW that what they did & the excellent way they did it was ALL they needed. I feel like bands who resorted to theatrics were embellishing because their musical performance product wasn't sufficient in & of itself. In a way, I feel like MTV sorta "made" some bands believe they needed a "show" when all they really needed was a great sound and flawless performance. Like orchestras, just executing great musical performances.
