This is how I'm bringing in 2025 listening to 80's rock and roll. Hands down the BEST era to be a teenager!

Pretty much. The album came out in 1978 and it has stood the test of time. This is hard rock at its finest.

Gary is my fav guitarist ever. More than Jimmy Page, Hendrix, you name it. He has a great sense of melody and feel!

This imo is one of the best songs for breaking up with someone that is just taking you for granted. The words are perfect.

[@cherylshutch]

This song is really great, It makes u ask ur self questions, when u feel taken for granted. I have felt this way a few times, and we broke up. The last breakup, was a 20 year marriage. BUT LISTEN TO THE ROCK, OMGOSH!!!!!! THEY ARE AWESOME, RIGHT IN THERE WITH THEIR MUSICAL TALENT, VOCAL TALENT. AMAZING. REO, IS THE MASTERPIECE... ROCK ON !!!!😂😊

There is a song by Tony Bennett. The good life (I wanna be around). If you do karaoke and she's in the audience, it's the perfect song!

Get it, kid

[@Dtiminator]

Yes indeed and that is precisely what I did to this song in 1981 - she was my first love but this is exactly what she was doing, taking us for granted! We had broken up and gotten back together and broken up and I was done and this song came on... and I said this sums up what I need to do!

Love REO ! They had some great hits but this is THE song when you think of REO This era was a great time to be a teen 👍

[@fritzphelps1785]

For me the ultimate REO song is Ridin' the Storm Out, then follows Roll With the Changes, then Time. Truth is, I can never get enough of their music!!

[@suzannecarwell1391]

@@fritzphelps1785 Definitely Ridin' the storm out for me!

[@Jackietreehorn-z5e]

Journey is in the same bracket as these dudes. in the top 10 in my book..saw them in the early 80's.

Something about Mr. Richrath’s solos really make that Gibson super soothing & memorable 🙏🏻 rest easy Mr. Richrath.
