Staying Power is the best song on Hot Space, in my opinion. Back Chat is a top track from the album, as well. I'm actually surprised neither of them became hits.[/QUOTE]
Staying Power had potential...The chorus and horns...Those lyrics needed work though...[/QUOTE]
Much preferred the live version of Staying Power than the album version. Still that wouldn't change the lyrics though! :)
I don't have a horse in the disco / rock race, but certainly prefer the preposterousness of the 'disco' stuff on HS.
As for the first question - probably not. An elvis pastiche by an unknown band, followed by a disco tune 4 years too late. Hmmmm..
I'm thinking if that was their first record, something contemporary like Coming Soon would be a single. Then you can basically look at The Knack for career trajectory.
anobody in for "Dancer" ?
Dancer could have been a hit!
Although I don’t like the studio version of Staying Power on Hot Space, I’m really digging the more rock orientated live rendition of it during the ‘82 gigs.
Lame question with lamer answers
