That really changed my view of the song.

Well in the Lutheran church we obviously didn’t use the Latin, but as a liturgical denomination, we definitely sang those words.

I’m going to venture a guess to your question. I’d say just about every Lutheran, at least, and I’m one, and maybe most other members of mainstream Christians on Sundays

One of the most misheard lyrics in history..."Carry a laser on the road that I must follow......" ;)

#1 is "Excuse me while I kiss this guy" (Purple Haze Jimi Hendrix)

[@gingerdoll]

Oh Lord, yes. I totally sounds like that to a kid!

[@AluminumCloud74]

I was mesmerized by this song back in the day. I could get lost in it. Still can!

Seriously good vocals from Richard Page. He was picked to sing in Ringo Starr's All Star Band.

[@DANIGAL101]

As a teenager in the 80s..this song brings back so many memories! As a kid growing up Catholic....many more memories! Good call Jamal! Thanks for reviewing!!

[@John-kr7iz]

god i actually remember this band when they first hit the airwaves

[@billymayeux3638]

Brother, I wish I could have about a hundred years to talk music with you! I love you man.

This album got me thru some sad times in the 80s...Kyrie Eleison 🙏

[@danielmarquis5258]

There are MANY songs that make me happy (I am a big Music Nerd), but Mr. Mister's Music including "Kyrie" and "Broken Wings" makes me feel sane and blocks out the negativity that I see on the news. I was 8 years old when Mr. Mister blew up and they will always bring me back to a different time and place🙂😎.

Now you've got to go John Parr - St Elmo's fire if you haven't already lol!

[@donnalynn2]

I just watched that movie the other day! Found I still remembered every single line of dialogue!

[@silverdoeGirl]

@@donnalynn2 It's such a good movie and great cast too!

[@hitmixhyepock9405]

This is a song that brings back memories of living out in the country when I was in middle school.

[@jillplatte6370]

Another hit from this band is "Is It Love." Worth reacting to.

[@chosanwan1510]

I had to look it up. I forget about that song. It has to be at least 35 years since I last heard it.

[@donnalynn2]

I totally forgot about this one! Yes, great tune!

[@NicaB75]

It's a lesser known song, but a banger!

[@ficklefingeroffate]

This song immediatly transports me back to the mid-80s and Middle School and High School.

[@ginahollingsworth5907]

You're gonna ❤ this one!! I know you'll adjust the pronunciation of the title after the vid.

[@ginahollingsworth5907]

I knew you'd be clapping you hands!👏👏👏

One of the things I am most thankful for in life was that I was a teenager through the 80s. Brings back so many memories, evokes so many emotions, it was a turbulent time for me but 80s music was my refuge and saviour.
