I wouldn't say Bruce is/was underrated. He won 3 Grammy Awards, his song "The Way It Is" went to #1 on Billboard and became one of the greatest songs of 1987, he also made the top 10 with "Mandolin Rain", "The Valley Road" and "Every Little Kiss", he co-wrote "Jacob's Ladder", a #1 hit for Huey Lewis, and "End of the Innocence", a major hit for Don Henley. Plus, he was a member of bands The Range, The Grateful Dead, The Noisemakers and Ambrosia. I'd rather call that being a superstar!

i was 19 years old, leaving the safety of the nest. It was 1985, and I had the entire world in front of me. So many many many dreams. So many many many feelings of those moments of just survival and magnificent triumph. I'll never forget the last day I was home. And as I drove down the old road that had cuddled me for those 19 years... that next time I returned it would never be the same again. That breaks my heart to think everything is always forward-moving. Nothing stays the same.. nothing... you just gotta get up and move with flow or you get drowned in the sea of life.

In 1987, my mother moved us from St. Louis to Boston, during my sophomore year in high school. I had a crush on the guy who sat 2 rows over, way in the front of my English class. A few weeks after we moved, I got a letter from him. We’d only spoken once. This girl I was in orchestra with told him I liked him, and he wrote me. We wrote each other every other day for 3 years. I thought we’d end up together, but we didn’t. I married someone else 2 years later. This song will always remind me of the boy in English class I loved thru his letters.

This song has everything you could need in a successful pop song: A catchy chorus, an uplifting and happy message and some fantastic musicians that look like they're truly enjoying what they're doing.

I remember growing up in the UK and being struck by 'The Way It Is'. I bought the album and learned the songs, but I never came across anyone else who spoke about Bruce Hornsby and The Range. That's why I am so glad to discover through the internet -places like this one - that there is a huge number of other people who like him too.

I do remember Bruce Hornsby and the range the way it is and the follow up songs. In the United Kingdom dare I mentioned his name Jonathan king who was the producer of the TV series no limits played him a lot and so did the radio stations he did fall under the radar a bit. I know people who went to his gigs it like why clime fisher were not bigger in the United states of America even those rob fisher other band naked eyes were bigger in the USA than UK's.it works that way sometimes.

I used to really like this song as a 90s kid. It's not really the typical 80s sounding song, it's kind of country and soft/adult alternative which gives it a breezy timeless feeling.
