    Born & raised in Philly we all were so blessed to have this guy & his band the "Heroes!" Loved this song so much I had it as one of the intro songs of my wedding reception. RIP Robert, thank you for every great song you produced.

    2 versions of the same song - both the most '80s thing I've heard today, both bangers

    A much under apriciated song.
    Indeed, it's just a millimeter short of perfect.

    Refrain sounds like Sisters of Mercy in this version.
    The main melody reminds me of the motion picture soundtrack of Stephen King´s Christine (John Carpenter, 1983)

    Just thought I'd check out his music since the only one I know is Girls Just Want To Have Fun. So far I like it. Love those Keyboards. The 80s had the best music. Wish I could've experienced it with everyone else. I was only there 2 and a half years and I don't remember it.

      Dude, I met Roberts son Rex one snowy night a few years ago and before I knew anything about the dude we were already linked from one question he asked me “You fuck with Sabbath” and it was something I hadn’t felt in years. I’m eternally grateful for that happenstance meeting where this skinny white kid showed me what true rock n roll really is and it’s because of this dude.

    Version 1 is better but this is still a jam. Robert Hazard had a certain New Wave Leonard Cohen vibe about him that I love. Who doesn't love a good critique of 80s consumerism with a good beat? Certainly none of you watching this in 2024.

      Yeah, version 1 definitely captured the 80's vibe better.

    Awesome song! But the video here is bad even for the early 80's
