In all seriousness Huey Lewis and the News still remains an underrated band. They've churned out classics like 'I want a new drug' and 'Power of love', but this song remains their undisputed masterpiece, because it perfectly captures the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends; however, what goes more unnoticed is that it's also a personal statement about the band itself.... Hey Paul!
Bought 2 CDs of this album: 1 for me and 1 for my friend, Paul. Threw the CD inside a Jean Paul Gaultier overnight bag along with him, so he has something good to listen to in the afterlife.
the fact that this song is not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trend, but it's also a personal statement about the band itself, tells us a lot about the band itself.
Honestly though, I love the scene later in the film where the police detective says he likes Huey Lewis, and then Bateman dismisses him as "too black". It really shows how his music taste is only chosen so he can make himself seem better than everyone else.

You know, people should look past American Pyscho for this one. The song gives social commentary about doing the right thing, and how conformity is not always the best choice. It helps inspire the youth to look past modernity and return to simple times, before rebellion was “in”.Whether you choose to look deeper into the song or take it at surface value it’s catchy, fun, and something I can listen to on repeat. Hey Paul!

Fun fact: The scene this was played in American Psycho wasn’t part of the script. Christian Bale just found Jared Leto to be extremely annoying and decided to kill him right there with an axe he found in the set. After the deed was done, director who secretly recorded the murder found his performance to be so enthusiastic that she decided to include it in the movie.
I know right! Did you know that this song isnt just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends, its also a personal statement about the band itself?
When I was in Harvard Business School. There was a guy named Patrick in our class. He used to like Huey Lewis and the News a lot and listen to this song on loop. He used to call this song their undisputed masterpiece.
I think we've met the same guy. Bumped into him a few times around '88. Always raved on and on about this song. I swear man the song was his whole personality.

You know, people should look past American Pyscho for this one. The song gives social commentary about doing the right thing, and how conformity is not always the best choice. It helps inspire the youth to look past modernity and return to simple times, before rebellion was “in”.Whether you choose to look deeper into the song or take it at surface value it’s catchy, fun, and something I can listen to on repeat. Hey Paul!
When I'm Patrick Bateman:
nice jebait lulw
This was almost the first comment to not be a reference to American Psycho
Try to educate me now you stupid bastard!

Reminds me of great people. And fantastic music.
this whole album has a clear, crisp sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. I hear the Huey has even been compared to Elvis Costello but personally, I think that Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour. This song is without a doubt, their undisputed masterpiece because its so catchy but its sad to say that people probably don't even listen to the lyrics.

Fun fact: The scene this was played in American Psycho wasn’t part of the script. Christian Bale just found Jared Leto to be extremely annoying and decided to kill him right there with an axe he found in the set. After the deed was done, director who secretly recorded the murder found his performance to be so enthusiastic that she decided to include it in the movie.
Amazing movie . ............
how could jared leto be annoying, he played the role of dr. michael morbius (a marvel legend)
Jared Leto just Morbed himsef back to life.

I saw these guys live. We were so close, when I yelled 'it's hip to be square' , Huey Lewis responded. Hysterical. Great song and songwriter 😊
I'm so glad that people started listening to the lyrics. Very nice, impressive.
