As promised, this series will include not just hair metal, but ANY pop rock songs and above in terms of "hardness" in sound.

The next video is one of my favorites from the 80s:

Tom Petty & Stevie Nicks - Stop Dragging My Heart Around
Uploaded by jpdc11. - Music videos, artist interviews, concerts and more.

Baby you'll come knocking on
my front door
Same old line you used to use before
I said ya...well...
what am I supposed to do
I didn't know what I was getting into

So you've had a little trouble in town
Now you're keeping some demon down
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around

It's hard to think about
what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

I know you really want to
tell me good-bye
I know you really want to
be your own girl

Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight
of the words
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around

There's people running 'round loose
in the world
Ain't got nothing better to do
Than make a meal of some
bright eyed kid
You need someone looking after you

I know you really want to
tell me good-bye
I know you really want to
be your own girl

Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight
of the words
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around

What I notice is Stevie Nicks dark dress that reminds me of her taste in the occult and her looking at Tom Petty like she's going to eat him up when she says "make a meal of some bright eyed kid"

I also notice how the drummer is totally into the playing although its an easy beat.

I enjoyed the comments from the last blog and I encourage more of the same.

What are your thoughts about Stevie Nicks?

Is Tom Petty ok back then as a singer? or was he always a whiner in your opinion?

This song played on MTV during the first 18 days that MTV aired and was while I was in the delayed entry program for the Army.

Eurodance song:

Lyrics:

I WANNA HOLD YOU BABY

I WANNA HOLD YOU
NEVER BE LONELY WITH ME BY YOUR SIDE
SAY THAT YOU WANT ME BABY
I GOT THE THINGS YOU’VE NEEDED TO GET BY

I WISH YOU LOVE ME TOO
THIS TIME YOU PROMISE AND LOOK INTO MY EYES
I CAN GIVE YOU LOVIN’ BABY
SHOW ME THE WAY TO MAKE YOU FEEL ALL RIGHT
FALLING IN LOVE TO YOU

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
NOBODY ELSE TONIGHT
YOU GONNA BE MY CRAZY LOVE
I’LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN

I DON’T WANNA LOOSE YOU
I KNOW YOU’LL NEVER GONNA BREAK MY HEART
SAY THAT YOU WANT ME BABY
I GOT THE THINGS YOU’VE NEEDED TO GET BY
FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
NOBODY ELSE TONIGHT
YOU GONNA BE MY CRAZY LOVE
I’LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
NOBODY ELSE TONIGHT
YOU GONNA BE MY CRAZY LOVE
I’LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
LA LA LA LA LA LA
I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
LA LA LA LA LA

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
NOBODY ELSE TONIGHT
YOU GONNA BE MY CRAZY LOVE
I’LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE

I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
NOBODY ELSE TONIGHT
YOU GONNA BE MY CRAZY LOVE
I’LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
I WANNA BE YOUR NUMBER ONE
