what do they have in common?


Just guessing--they both used to be cops?


If Jeff Healy was a cop that'd be amazing! :shock:


There's a new crime drama soon to debut that features a blind detective.  In one of the clips I saw, he's in a crime scene car and says "A gun's been fired in here -- I can SMELL it!"

But yeah -- what was that one from the movie Legend of Billie Jean (which had nothing to do with tennis OR Michael J).?

"Invincible":

We can't afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible

And with the power of conviction
There is no sacrifice
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible.

Written by the frightening Holly Knight.


if jeff healey were a cop - with his own television show, that would be a great theme song. he'd need a sidekick, though.

My two favorite tunes from 1980:  Skateaway & The Wait.  Not a bad set by that reckoning.

By an amazing coincidence, there's a blind cop show coming soon to ABC, with the yummy Ron Eldard. it's called (wince) "Blind Justice".

Eddie Money and Chris Isaak

what I always think of is their lead guitarists in the early days.  Jimmy Lyons (sp?) for Eddie and  James Calvin Wilsey for Chris.  Both guitarists were essential to the sound of  the early hits, and both were dumped rather rudely by their respective band leaders.

Here's a bust-out: Set Me Free, Utopia.

Not Todd on vocals though--it's Kasim Sulton, bassist and resident pretty boy.

I've never heard this Utopia track before.  It sounds like they were trying to figure out what Elton John was *supposed to* sound like by this point and recreated it.

No votes from me, I've found most of this set dullsville.

"touch me with your naked hand... touch me with your glove..."

God I LOVE that song. Partly because some cranky Foghead complained about it not being "world class rock". (Probably the same one who compalined about Norah Jones back when.)
