So many reasons to carry a backpack in front only to cover the package...

Van Halen or Van Haggar?
(My vote is for Van Halen)

I was working at Coke and I remember Pepsi lost their ***** on this video because the world premiere during prime time caused bad press and Pepsi couldn't distance themselves fast enough from the images in her video.

This is what started it all in 1981.

This song always makes me think of the early (ie GOOD) days of MTV

In New England, we also had an MTV clone, V66.

I listened / watched 4x. I found myself calling off the names as they appeared.

The one below is for all those unfamiliar with the faces, voices and power of the 80's.

My neighbors hate it when I play this song as I crank it up for the drum solo at the beginning of the song. This is back when MTV actually played music videos.

This song is my standard method to test a stereo.
It sounds great in my truck on my Rockford Fosgate.
I sounds better in my husband's Acura.

For some reason, I dislike this song. I think it is because Tommy dumped me for this other woman. I remember asking him if he was going to marry her and this song triggers those feelings.

Tommy married her and divorced her in January 1998. (big smile)

I found out and called him in May 1998.

This album was my angry dumped young woman album.
