By Request
Jon emailed all the way from Texas (wait, that's no big deal...) to request this song, which he considers the epitome of the 80s. I would agree that the sound is quintessential 80s, we've got our pretty boy in a suit and the clothes and hair are nothing short of classic. Here's the thing: I have never heard this song in my life nor have I heard of this guy. So, there you go. You learn something every day.
Here you go, Buck:

Never heard of Rick Astley? He of the diminutive stature and throaty baritone that don't quite go together? He of "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down" fame?
Wow.
Unfortunately, he wasn't around long. After his auspicious debut, he adopted an unfortunate mullet and was never heard from again.
Guess I blinked. And those mullets, man. They've ruined many a promising career.
This is embarrassing, but I am going to admit it anyway.
I had this record.
Probably less embarrassing than admitting I didn't know who this short dude was!
