one of Bob's worst years, generally. But BOS1 Seger, "Roll Me Away", which is kinda like "Hungry Heart" without the sugar.

TP gets lucky. Shame about the rest of us.
WOS1 Survivor's "American Heartbeat".
VHM "I.G.Y." Where's my spandex jacket, dammit?
VHM JCM, "HSG".
http://nooooooooooooooo.com/: Rush, "New World Man". WOS2.
BOS2 Ms Benatar in the shadows, VHM the forgotten DL Byron, who wrote it. (Rachel Sweet did it first, iirc). Arista Records had told Byron the song "isn't commercial enough" and he left the label.
