For the record, all the ones that DID NOT chart in the USA, were hits on the US Rock Chart


For me, it has to be Key West Intermezzo and I'm Not Running Anymore

Sorry I don't care for Mellencamp. It's amazing he's still popular though.

I selected Wild Night; however, I like the 80s Mellencamp.

He's only had one hit in the 00's so far?! :o

Anyhoo...


"Wild Night" and "Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First)".  :)

These are the ones that I vote for too! 8) I also remember "Just Another Day" from early 1997...it was a good song.

In the Billboard Hot 100 yes.  In the rock chart, the country chart, the A/C chart et al, he's had several others

I thought so. Can you tell us the names of those songs?

I can ...

2001 | Peaceful World (featuring India Arie)
2004 | What You Say (featuring Travis Tritt)
2004 | Walk Tall
2007 | The Americans

Between the Billboard A/C, Rock and Country charts, those 4 were hits

I do remember that he had a duet with India Arie around 2001/02, which seemed to do fairly well in the A/C department, as I recall. I had forgotten what the song was called. Thankx for refreshing my memory bank! O0

And of course, "Our Country" had been popular in Chevy Truck commercials, especially during the baseball postseason the past couple years.

That song is from 1996? I thought that song was from the 1990-1994 period. I guess I'm just shocked that he had that major of a hit that deep into the 90's.

"I;'m Not Runnning Anymore" was good but didn't do well in the US. I guess "Wild Night" would be his best song out of that list anyway. I don;t know what "Dance Naked" sounds like but I have probably heard it and just forgot about it.
