Everything in today's world is taken too seriously - everything! Sadly I can't see people lighting up much. Everyone seems to busy divulging in massive self-pity. Exception being Half and Jai - you two are just awesome in every way! Cheers to my fellow eighties fans. P.S. Did you know that hipster mag, Rolling Stone actually bagged this song to shreds. I think they called it the worst of the year. I know that is impossible to believe. RS never did like HLN as they didn't fit the hipster image. Remember the great song Hip to Be Square. P.P.S Check out Johnny Colla's I Hear Voices CD - very happy upbeat and fun.

Huey Lewis was actually in Back to the Future. He was the teacher that said "I'm afraid you're just too darn loud." when Marty auditioned at school. They had 2 tracks on the soundtrack, Back in time, was the alarm that woke Marty up. Then of course the main track they played through the first movie. I think this might have been background when Marty was skateboarding to school. Not sure though.

This is/was one of those Rock/Pop groups that defined the 80s. They had a mad number of hits from this one, "It's Hip To Be Square," "The Power of Love," "Heart and Soul," "If this Is It," but I'm betting you'd really relate to "I Want a New Drug." Digging your reactions. You never disappoint.

This was NOT on Back to the Future. "Power of Love" and "Back In Time" both were though. For other great songs of theirs: "I Want A New Drug" and "Heart and Soul" Huey appeared in the movie - he was the music show critic Marty tried out for with a megaphone - telling Marty he was "too darned loud" as Marty played HIS song "Power of Love" on the guitar. Cute moment in the movie for those who knew. At "the prom" (Enchantment Under the Sea Dance), he played Earth Angel first then tore it up with Chuck Berry's Johnny B Good.

Huey is from the San Fran Rock scene of the late 60's and early 70's. In the 80's when he was already in his 40's BOOM he scores and scores big. Huge list of hits all crammed into about 7 years. Did Rock n Roll when it had fell out of fashion and kind of helped bring it back. He is one of the finest harmonica players in the world and learned from the legend himself Paul Butterfield. Before the 80's he got a big break playing with, of all bands, Thin Lizzy (The Irish Metal band) and they listed him on the record as Blue Huey. You can hear him on their live album.

"The Heart of rock & roll" is a comentary of how the Rock & Roll sound changed over the years from its roots. that is why they put in black and white flash back clips of famous 1950's artists.and why the band is mostly in BW. that is one reason why Huey Lewis and the news sounds the way it does. kind of a throwback yet with a slight modern (at the time) twist to their songs. a lot of sax in their songs. again a throwback to the 50's sound, with a bit more R&B add in.
