|
I think this song is about exactly what it says in the title. I was disappointed the girl in the video wasn't incredibly hot. |

| Loverboy – Don't Keep Me In The Dark Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
|
To me the song is about a girl getting ready to leave a guy and the guy suspects it. This was a bonus song on Wildside, you didn't get this song if you bought the vinyl record. |

The song was like "Lovin Every Minute Of It" except the lyrics was bragging about how great they were. My favorite song from Wildside. |

| Def Leppard – Back In Your Face Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
After the 80's ended, Def Leps career hit a slump in the 90's. They tried to get back to the Hysteria / Adrenalize sound in the late 90's and this song was about announcing their comeback |

| Def Leppard – Gods Of War Lyrics

|
|
This song takes me back to the 80's more than other Def Leppard songs, many people thought the Arms race would end with Reagan blowing up the world. |

| Def Leppard – Bringin' on the Heartbreak Lyrics

|
|
A great rock ballad, always love the dramatic pause followed by the singer yelling "No! No! Noohuwoah!!! before the guitar solo. I miss the mid 80's remix version with the special sound effects. |

| Def Leppard – Armageddon It Lyrics

|
Great song, just heard it live at a Def Leppard concert. I remember a girl who insisted the song was called "Are You Getting It" and would yell that over the Armageddon It part. |

| Sammy Hagar – I Cant Drive 55 Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
Maybe the most political rock song of the 1980's...shows how politically unmotivated we were because this song protests the speed limit. Still, the song worked because the California speed limit is now 65. Killer song, but the speed limit change has dated it a little. |

Red is Sammy Hagar's favorite color, he was known as the "Red Rocker" for a long time. Good simple rock song. |

| Boston – What's Your Name Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
The CD booklet says this song is about aliens. The part I like is in the guitar solo when the twin guitars sync up and another guitar makes a whooshing noise in the background like a spaceship. |

| Boston – Walk On Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
This is my all time favorite Boston song, it's about taking a stand and living your life. This song has multiple guitar solos, amped up vocals, a long organ solo and a "bolero" section. Great stuff! |

| Boston – Hollyann Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
After years of vague lyrics, Boston wrote something specific with Hollyann. The song is nostalgia for being a 60's hippie. Corporate rock flower power! |

| Boston – Feelin' Satisfied Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
This song is about just relaxing and enjoying the music of a rock and roll show. The vocals in the chorus always reminded me of the Beach Boys. |

| Boston – Don't Look Back Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
This was the first Boston tape I ever bought while on a car trip to Lake Tahoe. The lyrics and theme of the song about not looking back and seeing the road ahead fit well with the long car ride. |

| Boston – Cool The Engines Lyrics

|
The whole Third Stage album was about turning 30 and to me this song was about toning down reckless youth. |

| Boston – Can'tcha Say (You Believe in Me)/Still in Love Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
It's a great sounding song, it starts slow, goes fast, goes slow, goes slower then speeds up for a big finish. Lyrically, I could never get past the part about "Everytime I think of you, you're on my mind." Always thought that part seemed weak to me. |

| Boston – A Man I'll Never Be Lyrics

|
|
The best Boston ballad, the guitar solo in the middle is amazing! The lyrics are kind of sad, either the girl can't see the man he really is or dude has a confidence problem! |

| Journey – When You're Alone (It Ain't Easy) Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
The song is about how it's not easy being alone. This came from the Evolution album, it has a great combination of Steve Perry's R&B style and the rest of the bands rock roots. |

This song is about doin it, Peter Cetera style! The video had a crazy car chase that ended with Peter Cetera in an ambulance driven by the woman he was chasing. |

I really like this one, its a great Chicago ballad with more horns and orchestration than usual. As for the lyrics, its a pretty sad song like Hard Habit To Break |

| Chicago – Dialogue Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
I thought the lyrics were a little silly, but it was written in the early 70s and I didn't hear it until the 90s. The lyrics are about a politically active person talking to a politically ignorant one. What I like in this song are the horn parts. |

| Chicago – Call On Me Lyrics

|
One of those classic 70s songs that remind me of being a kid in my moms car driving around town. The song has a nice light tone to it. |

| Chicago – If She Would Have Been Faithful... Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
I love this song! It sounds great, but the lyrics are insane. It's like someone wrote lyrics with a thesaurus. Its a paradox full of contradictions? Yeah, that's a paradox all right. It does defy a logical explanation. But that's what makes it great! |

This song used to play with Golden State Warriors commercials, so I think of them when I hear this song. |

I used to call Rick Springfield "The Genius" because he played generic rock with real feeling. Like the song says, its about feeling scared and isolated in the modern world. |

This song was the deal breaker for me with REO, it just got really predictable and boring at this point. Still like their stuff before this song, though. |

| REO Speedwagon – Don't Let Him Go Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
This is one of my favorite REO songs, with the jumpy beat and the fast solos and all. Lyrically, it seems to be about telling a girl to stick with her guy even though he pays no attention to her. |

I'm not sure what this song is about, I just assumed it was about cocaine. I can't tell what it means from the lyrics, so I'm sticking with that. Great song, though. |
