OK folks, what's your favourite Toto song? Mine (at the moment) is I'll Supply The Love. It's infectiously catchy and the vocals are absolutely amazing.

I don't want this thread to become solely about 99, but does anyone actually know what that song is about? I know it's not usually important to know what a song is about in order to enjoy it, but I just want to know what that song means lol. Any theories?

I have heard that it had to do with the TV show Get Smart and agent 99.
No clue if it's true.

Rosanna Arquette dated Steve Porcaro, not Steve Lukather.
Fav toto song is probably "Stop Loving You," but it has to be a live version wtih Luke's solo at the end. One of my favorite little bits of Luke guitar playing.

The song 99 was inspired by George Lucas's film "THX1138" with reference to the future, where we would all be refered to as numbers instead of names.

99,Georgy Porgy & Somewhere Tonight are sweet music to my ears.Love them.
Lately,I've been listening to
Mindfields.Some really great songs on that one.Mad About You and After You've Gone are my favorites at the moment.
But I love most of the songs on
Tambu,too!
I quit.

Agreed.
And I hate ballads. #2 would be Animal I guess, but I REALLY dig IBOY.

The solo in IBOY is outstanding as well...Very Schon-like on that one.
