Yet another song/band I never heard of when I was "in the 80's".  One of my goals in life is to find all of these ones that I missed the first time around.  THANKS!

I had heard alot of songs within the last 2 years that i didnt hear once in the 80s http://www.inthe00s.com/Smileys/webby/grin.gif

Kinda strange.......

"Just around the corner" -- Awesome song
"If you were here tonight" - 1985 (R&B) -- Superb beyond words


R&B started getting good in the mid-late 80s (Rock/Pop started going downhill in the late 80s)

One more from the early 80's.  This had HUGE rotation on the rock stations.  Not the original but an AWESOME cover...
