Huey Lewis & The News

[krissirge]

One of the most popular 80's pop rock bands,Huey Lewis had a string of hits,most notably Academy Award nominated "The Power Of Love"

I got their greatest hits album and I wonder why I didn't get this before.This is fun,lighthearted rock,filled with catchy hooks, topped off by the great voice of Huey Lewis.

Favorite tracks:

The Power Of Love

Back In Time

Stuck With You

Hip To Be Square

[Lithium]

I like "Hip to Be Square". And they played with Elvis Costello, so that automatically makes them cool.

I can't listen Hip to Be Square without being reminded of this.

Absolutely! Great movie

Huey Lewis himself......ummm...not so great

also, Huey plays harmonica on "Baby Drives Me Crazy" from Thin Lizzy's "Live and Dangerous" album. he was in the band Clover at the time and they were the support act for Lynott and co.

i love Huey Lewis and the News. "Sports" is a great album.

they're awesome! "the heart of rock & roll" is one of the best songs ever.

Huey also flexed his acting muscles when he stared in the critically aclaimed Duets with Gwenyth Paltrow.

Remember that movie?

Me neither..

[AxlsAngel]

I associate most of his songs with movies. Never really been into him, but he did have some catchy tunes. I Want a New Drug is probably my favorite by him cuz it's kind of a "joke" song for me.

[SunnyDRE]

I think the "Heart Of Rock N Roll" is their best track.

[Morten..]

I like some songs.

Someone should tell him that walking around with Caterpillars above his eyes , is not exactly ..........HIP
