    A great song never gets tired or outdated. This is one of them. One of my favorites in 1978, 18 years old and 2024, now 65 and still listening to this group...and rocking out.

    I love this song. I will always be a fan of The Babys. I love the fact that Tony hasn't changed his kick drum head. No, it's not John Waite singing but damn John Bisaha does an amazing job. I wouldn't pass this show up if they came through. John Waite still tours and puts on an amazing show. This is a great re-recording with the current line up. This is such feel good music. Makes me want to go out for a long ride or drive :) Thanks for keeping the music alive and true!

    WOW, since I was a kid, ( I was 11 in 1977 ) this song has made the hair stand up on my arms and neck....The Babys have recently come back onto my radar and feed, so this is a pleasure being more recent! John still sounds great and the backing girls are great carrying the original vibe forward! I love it, and would go see them live if I knew they were close by....I was saying to someone today how certain songs will bring that wild time travel thing out of you - like the hair standing up stuff - it's a transportation back in time....memories mixed with music is powerful stuff!

      They WERE they just don't ATTRACT the LOW IQed crowd.
      Remember goig to band Practice and One of the guys brought this album. WE sat there listening the the FIRST line,, That starts like a INCREDIBLY profound novel .
      Falling in love
      with you
      is the last thing
      I had on my mind
      OHM GOD..
      Not Even the Beatles were SO precise. To the point . SO POIGNANT

    I saw the babies in the 80s they warmed up journey at a concert I went to and from that point on I was blown away like seriously every time I hear their songs it brings me back to the time that I saw them in concert, and I only saw him one time, but their music will live on and on fabulous fabulous band🎉

    If we can't see Waite with the band (sorry, big fan), the very next best thing is having Bisaha! I was apprehensive about seeing them because many bands fall short with a different front man, but I am so glad that I did! They put on an amazing show even staying true to the albums! Anyone who loves the Baby's music should see them live!

    Takes me back to the 80's, such wonderful happy days that revolved around our music (okay maybe boys too). We danced to it 7nights a week and as a result we were so slim. We didn't know what happy carefree days they were. If I could turn back time it would be back to the 80's. It's fantastic that the music didn't die with the turning of years and we can still smile when we hear them.
