Down Under is a more inneresting song re lyrics.

The sax solo in Who Can It Be Now is - as far as pop music goes - the goods.

It's about as inoffensive as music can be really.

It's pop music and background doom room filler from my Champaign experience. But I couldn't identify more than 2-3 of their songs either. Just like Men At Work.

True fun is knowing huey lewis ripped that song off an awful band called M who made a song called pop music that sounds a lot like new drug and Ghostbusters.

Huey Lewis had at least 9 mostly forgettable songs that garnered significant radio play.

Maybe it's b/c silicon valley's run by folks who grew up in the 80's (plus I think Huey's from the Bay area), but Huey Lewis has had a lucrative post-80's fame career playing corporate gigs, private events, birthday parties, weddings, bar mitzvahs.

Here I go... from memory...

1 - Want A New Drug
2 - Back In Time
3 - Walkin' On A Thin Line
4 - Heart Of Rock N Roll
5 - If This Is It
6 - Power Of Love
7 - Heart And Soul
8 - Netflix And Chill

That's all I could think of. I'm certainly missing some.

He warmed up for Jimmy Buffett at Wrigley. That’s where it hit me that his hit song list was much more extensive than I remembered.
