Have you heard Self Control by Laura Branigan? Her most famous song is probably Gloria, but Self Control is such a night-driving 80s jam that I can't get enough of.
ohh yeah. i've heard this. took me until hearing "i live among the creatures of the night" to realize it though.

she has the voice for it. i wish she'd belt a little bit more through the song.
That song puts me in a good vibe. No Buffalo Bill shit but it makes me want to bounce around the house like an idiot.
well, goodbye horses!

Got Dirty Laundry now on the iPod finally, threw in Still The One by Orleans and put the rest of the Difficult to Cure album by Rainbow that I didn't have already to complete the whole album.
i know dirty laundry. i don't think i know the others.
Still the One is super famous. You've probably heard it.
i feel like i've heard this in a jingle somewhere and it was probably a cover rather than the original....

I see. I looked on the wikipedia and it says it was used in political campaigns and a 2020 Applebees commercial. When you mentioned the commercial I feel like I've heard it in a commercial in the 90s too now that you mention it. But I can't find any evidence.

it might have been a sound alike thing. or parody-ish just for the commercial. or i could be going mad.

The album cover was an attempt at sex appeal but it gave off the most homo-erotic vibe and went down in history as one of the worst album covers ever. lol. Five Guys is a burger restaurant damn it!

Same could be said for the boy bands of the 90s.

i think i found it or at least sounds closer to what i remember. but it's an ad that played before i was born... maybe they also played it later or something.

I read about this on the wiki page for the song but didn't cite it since it's a little bit before our time.
