Thanks for this. It should have been a huge hit for the band but they never got the push they deserved. Shout out to blonde Ellen Foley in this video. She was the female voice on Meat Loaf's " Bat out of Hell" Album and she was on Night Court before Markie Post.
I think I just heard this in a restaurant earlier today an now this pops up on my RUclips feed? I like Utopia/Rundgren but never heard this on the radio back in the day?
Yeah, another Todd/Utopia "shoulda been a hit" song. That's so bizarre that you heard it in a restaurant. That's got to be a very rare occurrence, for sure !
This should have been a hit! Plus Todd creating the video…no one comes close 👍. I heard that MTV took this off its list because they thought that Todd jumping out of sanctuary so that the president could be brought in would looked at as someone committing suicide. This was the rumor back in the day? It just doesn’t make sense, that song was a hit and video was probably the best performance of any video at the time on MTV. Most videos back then just showed a group singing and or having women dancing around them….basic performances

don't forget about lead vocals on the Clash song, "Hitsville UK"
Guess she knew Todd from the Meatloaf days

It was a promotional video for the song "Crybaby", but what's "sm" mean. What am I missing here ?
