One of my all time favorite songs. Just perfect. First heard it on Miami Vice and it had me immediately.
I listen to very little of the hair metal that I grew up on, but man, Cinderella really holds up. Night Songs and Long Cold Winter (and Heartbreak Station wasn't bad either) were two great albums from my teen to college years. I remember trying to sing like this guy and hurting myself.
Some of the hair metal "music" isn't bad but it's the "I just got kicked in the nads" screaming/singing I just couldn't stand. To this day I still don't understand how it became a thing (I guess everyone just started ripping off the Crue).
Too bad more 80s bands didn't use the Cult approach and just sing their asses off.
I've been listening to Sarah Jarosz. Had a student employee of mine from a few years ago at ISU sent me a heads up about her new album and how Jarosz has been a favorite of hers for years. I hadn't heard of Jarosz before, but she used to be more of a folk/Americana singer and won four Grammy awards for her efforts. But she wanted a change of scenery and sound, so she moved to Nashville from NYC and worked with some new songwriters. She has more of a 90s women-of-country feel to her now. I loved what I heard and ended up buying the album.

I LOVE that Jealous Moon song…. been hooked on it for a few weeks now.
Are you saying she was a student at ISU?
Jarosz was *not* the student. I will edit that to clarify better.
I think Jealous Moon is my favorite, but the whole album is worth a listen. Really good.
I was listening to them earlier, and totally agree. She is legit so talented.
I honestly think I might not mind it but in my head I can’t get past all the… “Beyoncé-ness”.
I was listening to this album that I bought in Africa, this group was famous internationally. I will take three great songs off it.

I have officially failed as a parent, my children should be taken away at this point.
Korn and Adidas had a limited run collection in the fall to celebrate Korn's 30 years of wearing custom Adidas track suits. My oldest (13) saw mine last night and said "what the hell is Korn?". Naturally I responded with - only the greatest band to ever take the stage. He's like, well it's spelled wrong.
Sigh... it's time for Children Protective Services to get involved.

It's my concert attire. Favorite band since a couple years after they started (started in 93, fan in 95). I go to a bunch of hard rock concerts but don't like a lot of the band shirts with skulls and all that stuff so this is my "fit in" attire.
The Cars are one of those bands with a sound totally of their own. I don't think I appreciated them as much when I was living through it, but I do now. Also, had a buddy who could have passed for Rick Ocasik
