It's like all-star hockey games, fun to see them all in one place but it rarely makes for great hockey. |

Is this a John Mellencamp (Cougar) ripoff?  Sorry, but that's where I was going when I first heard it, trying to recall who it was or, at any rate, who else performed it. It's that walls coming down thing... |

Just broke out the album a couple of days ago and played the whole thing.
This is a standout song in an album of great stuff.

Good piece from a very fine project. I think the album won a Grammy in 1989.

So my 10 plus your 10 = pure music to our ears .. Hard to beat on long trips— blasting the Wilbury's
cranked up to max. People look at me like I've flipped but I like singing in my car, better than the shower
This album is a great one to sing along with. |

If Webster's has a dictionary that played music, this song would be the definition of "over-produced." A little Jeff Lynne sure goes a long way. E,L,Oh my God!

This track has a lot of Glen Frey stuff in it, chords,beats, transitions ... hope Frey got a percentage ...
You bring up Glen Frey as if he is an influence when you've got Harrison, Orbison, Petty and Dylan - LMAO
Talk to Glen Frey
Right!
Who is Frey....? In comparison?
