Fantastic song. When I was younger and more socially awkward and did not understand how to court women I was more their friend than love interest. Therefore I connect with this in my former life, teens particularly. I was the brother to all of these ladies and the best friend, last option. I understand this song and am great BOC made it so I could not feel alone in this. BOC helped this young man for sure. Now I'm married and happy and grateful that youngsters have this to turn to.
@MatthewMartin23 This song came a bit after that stage in my life. But it sure did resonate because I had felt trapped like that. Near the girl you want... but never farther away. Girls aren't "buddies" boys. If she's not interested the way you'd like... move along.
This Lp was so underrated all the songs on this album rocked.........by far my fav.....

@maximtrickett BOC was one of many bands that made the seventies and eighties great.

Of course, I meant "drum sound" not "drum song"!!

Good song, could have been great with the right production. That drum song is terrible.

@cuttlefisch You're right, production is horrible, almost made me leave the song. Mutt Lange would have done wonders for that song.

This was *so* fitting of my scene when I was younger (and single).
Now...I know better. Partly because I'm married, partly because I'm older and can reflect on my past.
