I'm Kind of a Rocker; so these would be songs that I like That you might like also. More than a feeling by Boston ! This guys voice gives the synths or the Guitars a run for their money ! Not to spoil it; but the UFOs on the cover are upside down Guitars !

I guess I an going to give away my age, but I was 16 when this album came out. It was such a huge hit and everybody, I mean EVERYBODY, had this album, at least in my age group. Growing up in the Midwest, rock music was king and the list of debut albums by epic rock bands in the 70's was very long. An album was $5 and I had a really good paying job so I bought as many albums as I could afford in those days.

You and I might be somewhat similar; as I grew up in the midwest, also. But I was kinds out of it in those days growing up in country-bumpkin High school; and I didn't discover this song till much later. We were somewhat poor; so I didn't have a record player. I spent my time playing Chess or other Games as I was a Gamer ! I catch up on all the songs I missed now with you tube ! Ha ! Which is how I discovered Alizee and fell completely in love with her !

Edit:

Take it on the run Song and; being somewhat of a writer; I make up the story for it.
"Sometimes a Girl gets mixed up with the wrong kind of a Guy.
Then the Police Come.
And the Shooting Starts !
unfortunately the Girl gets Caught in the Cross Fire !
It would be a Great Song for a movie; if I ever write It !"

A song About Taylor Swift and/or Alizee ( in a kind of twist of time )
"The Curtains are Closed; the Cats in the Cradle" is sort of about Taylor's kind of Cute lop-eared Cat ! Her Cat in which the ear's do not stand up !

It was a Crazy Time and People were going Crazy; and All the Band's songs Reflected this !
In Search of the Lost Chord; The Moody Blues in "Ride My Seesaw" !

Not so Crazy; but kinda Nice !
George Harrison What is Life set to Ballet ! the Girl and the Boy are members of the San Francisco Ballet Troupe !

Dire Straits Sultans of Swing ! They wer always Broke haveing to borrow money for Dinner, before they got a Hit and had no name for the Band. So A Manager said why donlt you just call yourselves Dire Straits ?

Being somewhat of a writer I change the words way Down South in London town to way down south in New Orleans Town ! where you would hear a band playing dixie with trumpets !

There is a Verse missing in this version ! The part about the guys in the corner who don't really like the bad;
They don't give a <blank> about any Trumpet playing band;
because, for them, that isn't rock and roll !

Old Time Holiday Road from the movie Vacation with Christy Brinkley as the Blond in the sports car ! And Chevy Chase chasing her !

I've been on Holiday Road; driving across the United States ! Stopped on an Interstate under a light to trade off drivers, when a wolf or wolf dog attacked the car, so we had to take off and not change drivers until a restaurant ! Another time I was snowed in on the Pennsylvania turnpike for two days after a Blizzard; because it took them that long to plow the turnpike. The last food to sell out in the Howard Johnson's was Pistachio Ice Cream Cones ! They were sold out of everything else after two days ! Ha ! so I got quadruple Dip Cones for everybody !
Coming back east on old route 40 through Wheeling west Virginia. My mother told my older sister; who only had a learner's permit from Illinois, not to speed as she only had $50 and the police will throw us all in jail ! But my sister, who was a teenage rebel, came down the mountain, crossed the bridge into wheeling and went 50 miles an hour through the town ! It took the police a while to get in gear to chase her; but they did. we passed an 18 wheeler truck and another truck pulled out to pass him; so they blocked the police from catching us with their lights on ! we got way ahead so then we pulled in a restaurant and parked in the back and then went in and ate lunch. The police missed us ! Ha !
