I have no idea what the point (if any) was, but I LOVED this video collage more than any I've ever heard on YT... w00t!

@funktuall Good point!!

3) I was one of the people duped by the 45 version of "Here I Go Again". I ended up acquiring the LP just to get the more familiar version.
4) Love the pic sleeve for "Mexican Radio"!!
5) I agree with shawn0612... the 12" of "Dance Hall Days" is outstanding.

I love Wang Chung's soundtrack To Live in and Die in L.A.
Kim Wilde started presenting gardening tv shows on the BBC a few years ago.
Higher Love is used perfectly in Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

A couple of things to add:
1) Chaka Khan was scheduled to do backing vocals on Robert Palmer's "Addicted To Love"...she told the record company to "stuff it, I ain't doing back-up". Then, when it hit #1, she regretted not taking part. Winwood comes along, offers her back-up vocals for "Higher Love", and she jumps at it!!
2) White Lion's biggest hit was "When The Children Cry", peaking at #3.

@Bigstud19 ineresting stuff right there about Chaka. I didn't know that. I heard it was her label. Either way: When the Children Cry may have gone the highest on the charts but that doesn't make it their biggest hit. That song is awful.

@funktuall I wouldn't say it was awful...it was definately a different sound than most of their other songs....but if you use that as criteria....you could say the same about "Every Rose Has It's Thorn" by Poison, or , dare I say it, "Only Women Bleed", "You And Me", or "I Never Cry" by Alice Cooper.

@Bigstud19 It wasn't just awful because it was a ballad, many power ballads were fun but his voice should just never sing like that. That is exactly why you never hear it anymore.

I never knew that was Chaka Khan toward the end of Higher Love... what a voice on her.
