1. Summer of 69.....BOOM! And a star is born.
2. Somebody.....This guy is a great song writer. Period.
3. Heaven.....The song picked for our wedding slow dance together. It has to be here.
4. Run to You.....Saw him live in 2015 and he nailed this one.
5. It's Only Love.....A hard rockin' duet with none other than Tina Turner...oh...and guitars!
6. Cuts Like a Knife.....A beautiful cut that sold me on his musical talents.
7. Heat of the Night.....Again, a great song writer...from Canada!
8. Kids Wanna Rock....High energy song and a great live performance.
9. This Time.....Stellar lyrics. He has an outstanding singing voice.
10. Can't Stop This Thing We Started.....While I don't rank em' for the video, but go watch it anyway. It's awesome.
11. One Night Love Affair.....This tune has perfection written on it before a single note is sung.
12. Into the Fire.....A latter years single from the album by the same name cut in 1987.
13. Everything I Do.....My second ballad on the list. I'm slightly ashamed, because I like to rock.
14. Heart's on Fire.....An energetic song best heard live in person.
15. Straight From the Heart.....This gem would probably be higher on most lists. FM radio wore it out a bit for me many years ago.
tie: Lonely Nights.....Nearly left it off. It's worthy.
UNDERRATED SONG: She's Only Happy When She's Dancing
OVERRATED SONG: Please Forgive Me.....I forgive you. I know you can do better than this.
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH: Long Gone.....It sort of rocks, so why not.
ALBUM TO LISTEN TO: "Cuts Like a Knife" is a nice album and got me started on his music, but he followed up that nicely with "Reckless" and never looked back. Easy pick.
