Now that’s a vibe!
I used to watch Letterman religiously back then yet somehow I missed this episode. Thank god.
This song and Instant Reply are ear worms.
Love this song
Really great! I should have been a teenager in the 80s, so I could have fantasized about my crush(es) while listening to this song. ☺️
Also, one complaint… They should have turned down the volume on the electric guitar. It drowned out the awesome sax solo.
Another thing I noticed (did you notice this?)… He has a sleep mask around his neck!
I had this bassline/song stuck in my head for 3 months when I was 4, which seemed like an eternity
Man I love that classic 80s pop guitar sound.
Peak ‘80s vibe
Looks like I finally ran into someone that likes to play as rough as I do
I thought a black man sang this lol
Top 5 songs by an artist you thought was black
God bless Dan ❤️
He was a member of Edgar Winter Group back in the 70s. He did the vocals on the song “Free Ride”
Streets of fire 🤓👍
My brain still has a hard time reconciling the fact that this also the singer for the 70’s hit “Free Ride”
The official video for this song featured a black singing group performing this tune, but not like it was a live performance, more like a group miming the song in a movie, but most people didn’t realize this.
This song continues to put an involuntary smile on my face every time I hear it.
He was also known for his ambient/new age material. New green clear blue heck of an album
40 years later I learned a white dude sang this
Man I loved this song back in the day
Is he rocking French Rolled Cuffs on his pants.
What an entrance! So much 80’s going on here.
Streets of fire
Fantastich
You know someone is a truly gifted vocalist, when they sound this good live.
So this is how I was concieved
I love that he’s actually singing and not lip syncing
There is nothing more 80s than a guy coming out looking like this and then fucking killing it.
