Thanks Taft!

I thought this would generate some good conversation.
THUD

Never really paid attention to the drums on that song but they're cool. Love the remix of that song in the Pac-12 Championship Game hype video. His daughter supposedly went to WSU while I was there and everyone tried to figure out who she was. Cool story, bro, I know.

The way he holds the stick in his left hand annoys me.
-
I always think more of the video when it comes to this song.
It's a banger, of course, albeit heavy on 80s arena rock shlock.

I just hate Journey and can't bring myself to watch it. They were middle school dance favorites...this song, Open Arms, Faithfully, etc... I liked them then, but I also liked REI Speedwagon, Survivor and Brian Adams then so wtf did I know?
-
REI Speedwagon? Was Sally Jewell the lead singer?
-
I don't think I get the reference/connection. I was a sucker for early 80s rock ballads during the early 80s. I'm not proud.

tend to agree. All those bands seem like lightweights in retro-spec.
Doesn’t prevent me from having a guilty pleasure playlist with great representation of these bands … and others …A man has a hard time forgetting what was injected into his brain in jr high

Separate Ways is a great example of that. I want to, but don't hate it. It has been in and out of my head since Derek made the OP. It's back now. Catchy, tough song to hate even though I want to.
