I freaking LOVE that song -- it never, ever gets old or tired, always sounds fresh, new, and good....

Plus it takes me back to an era far far away, from anything trump.
I loved the video too.
I can remember actually feeling happy. And singing my heart out in the truck.
Will we ever get back??

For both my wife & me.
We listened to "Songs From The Big Chair" a hundred times, at least.
I still do a solo, 12 string acoustic version of it.

My wife and I have been doing this song lately every time we play. Incredible response from kids to seniors. Last week a kid about 6 years old sang along and seemed to know all the words. Another great song from them is Sowing the Seeds of Love.
