I love this song. It's been remade a few times but most people still haven't heard it.

Saw them back in May, they still kick major butt! I'd definitely go see them again. LOL, Derri and Johnny D have barely aged at all in 20 years. :o :lol:

I really like "On The Loose". You were probably thinking "Turn Me Loose" fro Loverboy. I used to play this song in an 80's band years ago, and I always thought it reminded me of Rush. I could DEFINITELY hear them playing this song! :wink:

Michael was truly one of a kind. He had such a unique quality to his vocals... Really a shame! As far as Gaye Delorme goes...Can't get into it. Also, if there were EVER a need for a stage name.....THIS IS IT! :lol:

Great picks, although I'd be hesitant to call Dialogue 1 and 2 little known...

Icarus is also a great song. Very catchy.

Well it's a mainstay in the live set, and every time the whole arena's jumpin around singin and dancin. And you figure there's a lot of "casual" fans at Chicago shows, particularly people who only signed on during the 80s ballad era. It's not Hard To Say I'm Sorry, but I think a fair amount of people have heard it. At any rate, awesome song. Kath was great on this, vocally and instrumentally, but Champlin adds some nice B-3 stabs and his soul style really works on this one live nowadays.
