As soon as I left thew office I pulled it up and have been playing it since I left. My late husband bought me all his albums/cd's when he found out how much I love his music. Now it's time to go onto pandora. Who would have ever thought 80's music would become office background music? So grateful for the reminder.

@Greg Hubbard He clearly states that jcm is still with us. He's just saying that we should appreciate them while they're here because like Tom we'll all be gone relatively soon. Perhaps you should check into a rehab with inference and possibly even anger management classes! With their help and if you are willing to dedicate yourself to the curriculum you can possibly still learn to read , comprehend and retain the required information to be able to talk to the grown ups....
I'm 56 and loved John Cougar in my youth back in the eighties. I still love him and always will.

This song makes me think and miss a friend that has been gone for years. We would ride around with my son and ex wife and listen to this song. Me and my friend wasn't always friends he was my ex wife first cousin who i thought was crazy lol. But we both loved this song. God bless you Paul and thank you John Cougar Millencamp for this wonderful song. Music brings people together

When I saw Mellencamp on the Scarecrow tour he did this with him on guitar, the guitar player on mandolin and Lisa Germano playing fiddle. It was just those three at the front of the stage with one light on them. The song was transformed from a top 40 hot to a haunting slow country honk tune. It was one of the most beautiful moments of the countless shows I've seen over the years. Sadly I can't find this version anywhere.

Actually. - thus us when he was known as "John Cougar". I recall a guy in my dorm back in 1979/80 having this album and this being the song that seemed to be the "hit". I had no idea who John Cougar was - the song still sounds fresh and awesome.

Wonderful, underrated song. What a great hook. F*****g good song. All this soulfulness and authenticity is out the window in pop music today.

John Mellencamp's already famous and this classic song made him even more famous.His Rain On the Scarecrow Album/Years as well as numerous Albums and hit songs that he and his gifted band recorded made John became known all over the world.He's one of my favorite Rock Stars during the late 1970's,through the 1980's and 1990's and even up to this very day.A True "product" and Pride of the American Midwest---Bloomington,Indiana---U.S.A.
