Isn’t It Time and this one only made it to #13. Both should have been in the top 10. Head First is so underrated, yet another very good song. Back On My Feet Again and Turn And Walk Away very good as well. Thanks for the ROCK boys!

[@AndrewAshton-d2h]

Just one of those songs that hit everything perfectly. A true hit and classic

[@peacelovejoy8786]

Wasn't the music so heartfelt back in the 70's?! I though I would die when my first love dumped me. Now, 67 years later I feel so grateful I was able to witness the golden age of real music! We don't live on the earth, we are passing through it. ~Rumi ♥️

I was introduced to The Babys in 1988 when I was a freshman in high school and I've loved them ever since. Real songs and musicians. Most stuff since the early 90s is overproduced autotuned garbage.

[@brooklynbabe7896]

I'm with you on that one Hun was introduced to The Babys around 1991 John Waite just blew me away but my love for John started a few years earlier 7 years before my dear friend Missing You in 1984 changed my life forever as a little girl whose life was going from bad to worse when I found out not only my parents just got divorced but my Dad was going to jail for GTA (grand theft auto) I cried 😭 playing Missing You and Everytime I Think of You by the Babys along with Isn't it Time was just perfect thank you John you rock dude 😎🎇🙏

Well written song and David and company did a great job on it. 50 years later it still sounds great. I just wish he could have been happy before he past.

[@fredgervin9930]

One of the underrated bands of the late 70’s and 80’s. I grew up listening to them as well as ELO, Boston, Kansas, REO Speedwagon. Listened to stuff from the 50’s, the 60’s. Then came Punk, New Wave, Electronica. Then Nirvana and a host of bands with a different sound. Hey, I even like swing from the 50’s and classical. Crank Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overature, or chill to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. The best moment was 2017, New York State Fair and Kansas. My first concert in 1977, my son and me watching them together 40 years later, his first concert, deja vu.

That’s absolutely true; I remember it because right while Jonathan was still with the band he began composing a beautiful love song that eventually evolved into “Open Arms” 💗 💕 ❤️ Originally composed in A Major, he played the tune once for singer John Waite only to receive a negative response from him because Mr. Waite thought it was “Sentimental Rubbish”; thankfully Journey’s frontman Steve Perry LOVED the melody & the 2 started writing what would be praised as one of the best Power Ballads in Rock music history 🎵 🎼 🎶 ☝️ ✍️ 😅 💭 👎 👨‍🎤
