    First single off their first album, over 30 years ago. It was “love on first listen” and defined the kind of music I’d love from that moment on. I still get a rush of euphoria every time I hear the shimmering opening.

    This band did not, in fact, go down like a lead zeppelin

    Track #1 of the first album. Quite the introduction for a band of 16 year olds

    Someone else picked Dreams already, so going for a Hail Mary with this one 😂 I saw these guys about 10 years after this song came out. It is still their biggest hit, but they did not play it. I guess they outgrew the teenage guide to popularity.
