I absolutely LOVE this Howard Jones' song! I saw him about 10 years ago with Gene Loves Jezebel, The Outfield, Rick Springfield, and Tone Loc (cue "One of These Things Is Not Like Other" music) at the Sunken Gardens here in San Antonio. It was quite a day of nostalgia but I loved every minute of it!
ReplyDeleteWow - a show that must have been! Gene Loves Jezebel. I haven't heard of them in a while. My first serious girlfriend and I - this was "our song," so you can imagine the nostalgia level.
