Mr Mister - Runaway

[HomeComingPrisoner]

Richard's girl, y u no stay??

[tdbsnr]

I'm a huge (fat & old) fan of Mr Mister, bought their first two albums on spec in '84/5(?) & have been hooked ever since.  I must follow up their individual careers since than. So much music, so little time.

[shutupurgonnamakeit]

Do you ever think there will be a kick ass decade like the 80's ever again? A decade where some of the best movies and music came out? I was born in 85 so I really don't know but were people aware of how amazing that decade was while they were in it or after the fact? Really would have loved to be my age now in the 80's.

[hawaiidream1]

Not only was Richard asked to take Peter Cetera's place in 'Chicago', but he was also asked to be lead singer of 'Toto'!

[anitaforgeth]

k horrorrrr

[balletcomposer]

My goodness... how I love this song (and whole album). Still sorta sounds like their PAGES work, but with a more 80s feel.

[PMalmenklev]

Could have mistaken this for The Police any day of the week.

[tdbsnr]

@PMalmenklev  Yes, they are a bit like a cross between Duran Duran & The Police, only better, more musically interesting.

[katesgate2012]

you are getting mean..............He won't ever let go!!!!! THE GRIP WILL NEVER GO AWAY!!!!! they made it through the runaway............pluck their feathers and don't use me for this..............someone who was merely standing on the sidewalk through those FEARS!!! observing! LOOK UP EVERYONE WILL BE IN PERFECTION CALLED ETERNITY!!! THE TEARS and it was a MAN THIS TIME!!!!!!

[hiqwertyhi]

holy shit i was the 100th person to like this lol

[ndzordz]

Music, something that you think is second thing in the life but if you learn Psychology you have to know this (because of my poor English may I'll not be able to explain this): Music actually has the power to control you, directly control your emotions, your opinion over the world, your attitude. I like 80's because of the music. The music is the base of your lifestyle. 80's music is the best. I prefer AOR, Rock or something like this. It relaxes me, fills me with positive energy.

[AFRIKTODAY]

Is it me or does this guy sounds and looks like Sting?

[Missyamby08]

@AFRIKTODAY LOL its not just you..has a similiar sting talent as well

[anto1191]

@AFRIKTODAY sounds and looks better than sting ,it was a common look back then, big hair loose clothes etc, good eye though well spotted.

[MajCinematic]

I LOVE this song. Mr Mister are one of the greatest 80's bands! I wish they would reunite and do a nostalgic tour!! CASH IN Mr mister we want to hear you again!!!!

[mrmisterfan1]

@MajCinematic They´re back¡¡¡, the websites are: mrmimsterofficial com, littledumerecordings com, richardpagemusic com.

[MajCinematic]

@mrmisterfan1 WHOA! I was just thinking about if they came back the othr day.....and now they ARE!!? This could be great if they do some live shows I hope they sound good stil live.

[rubendrakkar]

I will like more music from them. . . its a shame how the music industry become, supporting idiots like justin bibier and lady gaga's copycat of maddona and both of them copy of cyndi Lauper

[jamaot]

allmost as TOTO

[jm31563]

ANNOUNCEMENT:On 7/19/10, Richard Page announces in a web radio interview that Mr. Mister's final unreleased album PULL has been re-mastered and will see the light of day "soon." Go to listenin.org and look up Mr. Mister in the INTERVIEWS page!! Good news, eh?

[Seleukos]

When they will join together again? That would be great news.

[tarasvoice]

I love 80's music it all has that same vibe. I love it.

[83Brokenwings]

@naturewoman28 especially Richard Page...what a guy, such a talent!!

[irishannful]

wonder whatever happened to them

[kevinherbert]

@irishannful : they're legends...in Sydney Australia at least....thanx guys....

[jm31563]

@irishannful

Currently Richard Page, former frontman and bassist of Mr. Mister, is touring in Ringo Starr's All Starr Band. He even performs some of their biggest hits with them on this tour.

[naturewoman28]

The guys of Mr. Mister are sooooooooooo sexy!

[t8mer]

@tonyjaaak47Amen dude. I miss the 80's so much, I could cry sometimes.

[ElasticMinds]

Man, I grew up listening to Welcome to The Real World, thinking that was their only CD for YEARS. And here 20 some years later im listening to songs i never heard from them before. god I love technology.

[leranleran]

Hi man!

I'm also 20 digging these Mr. Mister. They're simply awesome! I think you'd also like, Journey, Glass tiger, Sad cafe, Outfield. Icehouse and more. Yeah! Love technology! Have a great time listening to MUSIC!

[Annderss]

Ahh, I listened to it as an LP!

The same happened to my, I suddenly remembered them and now I'm finding all my faves from the tube :)

[JNblok61]

Great song, one of Mr. Mister's best! Mr. Mister rocks!

[HomeComingPrisoner]

[kaziu550]

[erinpielamb1]

[maj1986]

LOOOVE this song so much

He has a great voice ^_^

[anndddrrrreeeeesssss]

Eccellente!!

[justaguy12345]

Wow, really neat song, reminds me of Sting somewhat! Mr. Mister is great. Thanks for posting.

[SEAHAGS76]

Is this Steve Winwood in MR MR?

[spokanaken]

no way

[breatheasy9]

Pages, Pages, Pages, love their music, love Richard Page, a truly unique artist. So lucky to be alive at the same time as his music.

[jtm101583]

They did 3 albums in their time. This song was on the first one. By no means was it as good as the other 2, but this song was one of the album's better tracks, in my opinion.

[SUPREMEatrophy]

they actually did a 4th album after 'Go on...' but it was never released. Richard Page said that 'Go on...' was their best work, but the record execs only look @ sales. Go figure.

[vino122]

that is unreal album. those tracks hit my soul hard.

[ellengypsy]

The album Pull was never released, you can find Go On on ebay.

[SUPREMEatrophy]

I have 'Pull' but it's only in mono, not stereo...it's pretty good.

[flash007nz]

Another classic Page/Mr Mister song.

[felicita29]

and he was sooo cute......haha

[cheffy84]

sensational track from an iconic 80's band.

[jazzabells]

great song

[goodolt70s]

i love mr mister,all there albums,songs are great ;-))

[naturewoman28]

Eek! I love them, too!

[buzzman1982]

why did this band not go further, i think they made the best music of the 80's, i wish music was still like this

[GTXMAN]

yup,todays bling bling club ,rap,hip hop,emo killed the music .

[xxriccampbellaa]

yeah hip-hop is dead just stupid rap shit now.

[kjoemjoezik]

I love Mr. Mister... Their album Welcome to the real world is the best album ever made..

[Yanlegrave]

Superbe chanson de Mr Mister! J'adore! Surtout le solo (du synthé je présume et aussi de la guitare)

[evolnieveilebi]

I hear Toto, Yes, and Men without Hats in this song. Also, the drums do not sound very full-bodied here.

[Davemonzon]

Yes, I confirm. With some guitar and keyboard arrangment could be a Toto song of the 80s

[Davemonzon]

I forgot...Toto, they asked Paige, in 84, to replace B.Kimball. He refused.

[klct2006]

It's "PAGE", and he was also asked to join Chicago in 1985.

[SUPREMEatrophy]

Yes. Peter Cetera left to persue a solo career and 'Chicago' asked Richard Page to be their lead singer. Page declined and continued on with his band. Good move on his part. He carved his own niche' into 80's brand of music.

[Supermonkey22]

Hey Supreme. That's interesting...I had no idea Chicago asked Richard to take Peter's place. Makes sense...tenor voice and plays bass. Thx for the info. =) I actually learned something today instead of watching cute puppy videos. LOL!! Thx again.
