Russ Ballard is a musical genius, as a member of the late 1960's, early/mid 1970's hard rock band Argent "Hold Your Head Up", to writing hit songs for KISS, Uriah Heep, ABBA, Roger Daltrey of The Who, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, America, Head East, Night Ranger, Santana, Three Dog Night, Blackfoot, Bay City Rollers, Brian May of Queen, Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, The Zombies, The Alan Parsons Project, to name just a few. Simply amazing career. The brief guitar solo is masterful, capturing the essence of this song.

[@thanksfernuthin]

Wow! That's great info. I was wondering how someone could craft a perfect, thought provoking pop song and not have created other great stuff. Looks like he did. Too bad he didn't produce more for himself. His voice is great.

My father, Altin, has listened to this song, but one day, when we were going to my cousin, Fabio, when he was getting engaged with Rexhina Bami back then in April 17th, 2022, my father didn't recognize the name of the artist, then when we arrived, the Wi-Fi on his phone worked, and finally, he remembered the name of the artist. I'm Arlind, I'm from Albania, and this song is actually on my list of my top 200 favorite songs, but actually in honourable mentions, peaking at #34. We don't give a shit what decade has the best music ever, the 1980s were so full of best music, electronic music and R&B music etc. They'll remain!
