i listened to this on 94 Rock when I lived in Preble, NY. Bought the LP and wore the grooves out of it playing this song. so glad i grew up during the late 70's and 80's!
I used to party with him and his wife back in the day. Yes he and is wife was the nicest people you would ever want to meet. 95X turn it up and rip the fucking knob off. as Dave fersina would of said
Now if we could get "This Time" off of "Too Much to Lose" it would be really be great. "This Time" was the other harder rocking song off the album to get airplay in Lafayette LA on KSMB back in it's album rock days.
Our little album-rock radio station in Lafayette LA got great response to Benny, as did album-rocker KSHE/St. Louis. He was so popular in LafLA that, after we'd switched to top 40, his "Heart in My Hands" made our top 10 even without the usual national acceptance that was necessary for songs to even get airplay.
I think I read somewhere years ago that Benny was from California. He was so enomoured with the response from fans in Syracuse, that it became his adopted second home. We always showed him the love when he came to town. It's become a two or three time a year thing now in Syracuse. He's still a major draw. I'm living in Tampa now but I hope to catch Benny again during one of my visits back home. Benny Rocks!
Been looking for this one for over 25 years!!!! Heard it played on the radio only 1 time but never forgot it !Thank god you can't wear out "YOU TUBE" like you can a LP!Thanks so much for posting!!!
@bmrocks59 All of the CDs are available through Warrior Records except "Unauthorized". "Thank God For Girls", "Too Much To Lose" and "American Dreams" have recently been released on CD
@1970grantorinogt ---i have tried to download music from Benny Mardones on limewire, but only a few don't pop out too many...do you have his collection? if you do email it to me please....thanks...Juan
i only put it up this year, thought Benny's music should be heard, most people only know his Into the Night song and he has SO MUCH MORE than that, he is so great, i just love that voice and personally he is really nice guy, he cares about his fans...
I went to his concert in Sryacuse, NY he signed everyones cd, shirt that wanted one. He was there for 2 plus hours. Made sure to thank everyone for coming. One of the nice guys I will ever meet
yep, he sure is, i got my tshirt signed, got a phone call from hiim from california and he even bought me a drink in Verona Beach, Pfohl's beachhouse a few years ago, very nice man...
I saw him in Northern Light in Syracuse 30 years ago. He's awesome and I love this song. Benny is awesome!!!!

Used to live in Lafayette LA in the 1980s. Heard this on the radio then. Thought he was a local guy since I never heard him again after moving away.

It always amazed me that Benny Mardones remained a virtual unknown outside of Central NY. He is a great artist, and still kicks it live.
