It's Who Can It Be Now, without question.

Still relevant reflecting the current US Immigration dispute.

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.

One song that grew on me when I found an old CD is "It's a Mistake."

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.

You should make Huey and Men At Work part of your Champagne Room experience now.

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.
